Helt fel! Var kommer all denna nonsens ifrån?
Jag bodde i USA under ett år för studier för ett par år sedan och vill minnas att det var så då, men kan hända att jag har blandat ihop det med Schengen... Att bara korsa gränsen till Mexico och sedan komma tillbaka och stanna i ytterligare 90 dagar är i alla fall helt uteslutet.
Edit: Efter lite sökande så verkar det som att det inte finns någon generell regel som avgör hur snart man får komma tillbaka efter 90 dagars vistelse. Customs and border protection gör en helhetsbedömning och det skall vara ställt utom tvivel att du inte använder ditt vwp för att leva illegalt i USA och att du har tydliga kopplingar till ditt hemland samt ett syfte med vistelsen i USA som stämmer överrens med villkoren i ditt vwp.
"While in the U.S., you may go to Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean and re-enter the U.S. using the I-94 admission notation you were issued on your VWP passport when you first arrived in the U.S., although the time you spend there is included in the 90 days allotted for your visit.
If you go to Canada and Mexico or the Caribbean, and while you are there, your initial 90-day period of entry expires, but you need to come back in to the U.S. to fly home, you may encounter a problem. The terms of the VWP are very clear - it is only to be used for occasional, short visits to the U.S. If the CBP Officer thinks you are trying to "reset" the clock by making a short trip out of the U.S. and re-entering for another 90-day period, you can be denied entry. (If that happens, you will have to obtain a visa for any future travel to the U.S.) In order to be re-admitted to the U.S. shortly after a previous admission expired, you will have to convince a CBP Officer that you are not trying to "game" the system."
"If you visit other countries such as England or Costa Rica, then return to the U.S., your re-entry will be considered to be a new admission (thereby restarting the 90 day clock), rather than a re-entry from a contiguous country in the course of your initial visit, and the admission inspection may be more strenuous. The Officer inspecting you will want evidence that you intend to go back home to your country of citizenship to live as opposed to returning again and again to the U.S. after visits to other countries."
