You will receive a letter notifying you whether your application is accepted. When you pick up your participant's package, you have to bring the originals of the documents you sent with your application. If you submit the application, you will be the primary applicant, and your spouse and any dependant you list on your application will be the secondary applicants. Since you are responsible for all secondary applicants listed on your application, you have to ensure they comply with the program's requirements. Note If you want to participate in similar programs for entering the U.S. in locations where such programs exist, you have to apply separately to the U.S. Customs Service.
Applications are available at participating border crossings.
