Precautions to take
If you have a B-1 / B-2 visa or no visa (visa waiver) and come to the US a lot, here are some precautions to take when crossing the border and going to the US a lot.
Remember that INS officers have full power and can even bar you for life from returning to the States.
They can have you completely searched you, your luggage and examine all your papers in great detail.
Never travel with a US driver's license, US-issued credit card, or US bank checkbook.
Leave them in the United States or send them by email.
On the contrary, all the French papers which are proof of your life in France are a good point.
Bring travelers checks, vacation flyers, camera slung.
The perfect tourist.
No business cards with an American address but, on the contrary, business cards with French addresses.
Always have a return plane ticket
If you have a house in the US, bring proof that you have accommodation in France.
Show that this home in the US is made for the holidays.
Avoid business documents that may make it look like you're going to work in the US.
Love letters with someone living in the US can be very dangerous.
Any link with the US will be suspect and on the contrary any link with France or your country of residence will be welcome.
We have known people on the grill, because they often came to the US, who were "saved" because they said in passing that their dog was kept by a neighbor in France.
This is indeed a good reason to come back to France; they preach the false in order to know the true.
It is very easy to fall into their trap and you will say what they want to know.
If you are a "real" tourist, you will be fine and they know it.
You will always have the correct answers since they correspond to the truth.
Be and remain courteous.
They will always be right.
Don't lose your cool even if you are under great stress, and it can happen. The officers have discretion, they can get you back on the next plane and prevent you from coming back to the States for a long time, regardless of your visa.
Since the election of Trump, things have hardly improved.
