The two Goans, who were among 116 Indians deported from US for illegal immigration, landed at Dabolim Airport Sunday afternoon.
They arrived via domestic flight to Goa from Amritsar where they underwent standard procedures and documentation checks.
Goa NRI Commissioner Narendra Sawaikar, refusing to divulge details of the deportees, cited that each country has its own immigration rules.
"Immigration rules in each country must be respected. I urge everyone to follow the correct procedures when traveling abroad," he said.
The Commission is likely to establish contact with the two Goans for details.
Sawaikar also issued a message to all Goans looking for job opportunities abroad, particularly through agents. "Before making any decision, please verify all details carefully," he said.
Meanwhile, a US military aircraft carrying 112 Indians landed at the Amritsar airport late on Sunday night, the third such flight bringing deportees as part of a crackdown by the Donald Trump administration against illegal immigrants.
The plane landed at the airport at 10:03 pm, said sources.
Of the 112 deportees, 44 are from Haryana, 33 from Gujarat, 31 from Punjab, two from Uttar Pradesh and one each from Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh, said sources.
Families of some of the deportees have reached the airport. The deportees will be allowed to head to their homes after completion of all formalities including immigration, verification and background checks.
Arrangements have been made for the transportation of deportees to their destination.
