Chinese and Japanese immigrants faced several different difficulties when passing through immigration stations including:

1) Chinese Exclusion Act- This act limited immigration from China. This was fueled by the nativist movement in the 19th century.

2) Procedures at Angel Island- Angel Island is located San Francisco and was the main port for immigration for immigrants from China and Japan. At Angel Island, immigrants were forced to go through humiliating physical and mental tests in order to enter the United States.
