I can't add much that hasn't already been said about IDs. Be aware that the US govt is big on human trafficking now. I've been interviewed by the US Senate Subcommittee on Human Trafficking about trafficking in adult.
Bringing models in from foreign countries to work in the US is a violation of immigration law. Customs and ICE watch out for this and numerous models are already on their watch list and often get turned away at the entry point and sent home on the next plane. Often they are not only refused entry but are also not allowed to re-enter the US on any type of VISA for up to 10 years.
If you're paying for that plane ticket it is a roll of the dice whether you will be wasting your money. This issue has come up numerous times in my practice. I even had a US model denied a entry in a EU country for a vacation because that country's custom officer didn't believe the model that they weren't working.
Social media has made this situation even worse. Models routinely discuss their shoots and flying in/out of the US for work.
