My Wife will be arriving from Colombia on Avianca at Terminal 4 and
departing from Terminal 3 on Delta. Can someone tel me the location of
Customs/Immigration for Terminal 4 also maybe the transportation
situation from Terminal 4 to Terminal 3. I am sure she will have to
transport her luggage from Term 4 to Term 3.

Thanks in Advance for the help

It's not like customs is hard to find, you go where everyone else on
the plane is is going, and you end up in front where approximately a
gazillion people are waiting to meet arriving passengers.

Terminal 4 is, not surprisingly, next door to Terminal 3. She can
take the JFK airtrain one stop (take the all terminals loop, otherwise
it's a long way around.) There should be luggage carts and skycaps if
needed. If the weather is nice and she doesn't have too much luggage,
it may still be possible to walk; go out to the sidewalk, look to her
left, and walk to the next building, the one with the big round funny
looking roof.

I haven't been to T4 since they built it to replace the old IAB, so I
don't know whether there's a luggage recheck at the customs exit. If
so, she can check her luggage there and then walk or take the train to
T3.

Customs/Immigration is in the bowels of T4. From there, signs will
direct her to ground transportation, parking and the "AirTrain." She
needs to head for the "AirTrain," a people-mover system. There are
three routes -- "All Terminals" circles between the terminals. The
other two go to Jamaica Station and Howard Beach, respectively.

She needs to get on the "All Terminals" route. It runs clockwise,
so that after she boards at T4, the next stop will be T2/3. See this
website for a diagram showing the routes and an explanation of
how the AirTrain works... www.panynj.gov/aviation/jitcfram.htm

As one arrives at T4 by plane, do you have to exit the secure area to
transfer to another Terminal? Other words, do you have to go through TSA
security entering T3.

International arrivals always have to exit the secured area.

By now, in most airports, there are busses or the like to allow secure
transfer between an airlines own flights. I presume the same is true in JFK.

Of course, if no airline uses both T3 & T4 it is moot,
