Well, back into CMX on DTV yesterday and luckily I did have the dirty photocopy of the DTV as the immigration officer screamed at me for it. I simply said, "Sorry, I didn't know you needed the paper as well," and that was enough and then he got difficult. Luckily I found it in my bag. He huffed and puffed and stamped me through. Going to make many photocopies of that piece of paper.

Having a photocopy on hand can help avoid complications and frustration during the immigration process. Others in the community stress the importance of keeping copies inside your passport and carrying all paperwork at all times to prevent issues. Additionally, if faced with a rude officer, it's advisable to stay calm and request to speak with a supervisor, as this often leads to a more pleasant resolution.
