  • @Midavalo why would that matter?

  • @phoog Because if they left the US to Mexico by land then the US has no record of them leaving. If they are re-entering by land via Mexico then it could be considered trying to reset the 90 days because of that no record. There are official ways it's supposed to be done, and there are the ways the CBP officers interpret the rules and/or situation at the time of re-entry into the US. I am speaking of my own experience with ESTA and Mexican Residency, but it wouldn't surprise me if situations are similar for people traveling through Mexico & Central America by land.
