This is my first time traveling outside the U.S so i'm still a little naive when it comes to immigration processes. Anyhow, i lost the piece of paper that the immigration officer told me to keep when i arrived here. This paper is a tear off from the paper that you filled out on the plane. Has this happened to anyone else? Will it cause any problem on my way back home? Thanks.

you will just fill it out again when you leave.
dont worry, you wont be hold back in gnd

They will ask you to fill it out again when you go through immigration, before the security check.

Thanks, it's good to hear they won't make me stay cause i can't wait to get off this rock.

They can get a little peeved at people that do this, so make sure you say "hello, good morning officer. I'm really sorry but I lost my immigration form so I need to fill out a new one. I won't let it happen again" etc

Next time, put it in your passport with your customs receipt from your laptop tax and leave them in a sealed wallet until you need to leave

Don't you dare apologize! They will stiff you for 50 EC either way when you leave.

They will charge 50 EC for losing that thing? WOW

There's a 50EC departure tax. This isn't that uncommon in less developed countries but many students see it as an affront to their sensibilities.

Yea, when i went to mexico, one of my boys lost that same paper and they charged him 450 pesos (45 bucks).

Yes, because it is a rip off. It's bollocks, Never Mind The Bollocks.
