What is the best way to fill out the entry forms for a couple? One form for a couple or one form for each person?

I did them separately for our last trip in May.

Thanks for the info Scubaman

It's SUPPOSED to be one per person, but I guess some people have done the group thing and it has been accepted.

Thanks Carol we are going to do one each just to be sure

We did one each as well. On island now.

So I did one for my entire family. When we arrived, they had us go directly to an agent because we had our young kiddo with us. Have others who traveled with young children had that experience?

Yes any family traveling with kids under 12 go straight to an agent on arrival and departure.

Leaving Monday the 18th, hope our form arrives on Sunday. I did predate as suggested on here. I don’t understand the silliness of sending it back the last minute. A stress that seems totally unnecessary!

What form you waiting for? Once you submit it online your good to go. No paper work to show.

Oh ok. I thought I was getting something back.

Thank you for completing your registration. Your information will assist Immigration and Border Protection officials upon your arrival, ensuring a smooth entry process.

So, I assume they will have it, when I arrive or will I have to show it to them.

Just have to go to an open kiosk at arrivals and follow the prompts.

There is nothing to show. The information is collected electronically, and when you scan your passport on arrival, you quickly clear immigration. If you haven't completed the form before travel, you have to do so at the kiosk, which slows things down for you, and for other travelers. Of course, my statement assumes everything is working properly 🙄

Depending on what airline you fly, you may be asked before departure if you have completed the St. Maarten entry form. I always print out my entry form confirmation just in case they want to see it (was asked to show it on an American Airlines flight in May).

"(was asked to show it on an American Airlines flight in May)."
We flew AA in May through MIA and wasn't asked. Might depend on airport or the personnel at check-in counter.

I'm guessing you're right. We fly AA through CLT, and have not been asked to show it. The "get ready to fly" information that AA links to on your app does mention the form, and states that it's required. I just save my email to show if needed.

Was AA out of Jacksonville, FL. Was asked to show the confirmation in May. Two weeks ago I was asked if I completed the form, but not asked to produce the confirmation. I understand others have not been asked, but since others have (I am not the only one), I suggest having the confirmation email available as a good "just in case" precaution.
