You have taken a very long journey and landed in your dream country ,however there is one final step for you to walk the street,
Your landing flight./transit flight in U.S gives you a form to fill (Called I94).
If not,ask for it and the cabin crew will give it to you,take assistance from the fellow passengers.
One common question is if you take 2-3 transit flights and your original embarkation flight number is different from the current flight number as you are arriving in US,then always fill the current flight number you are in.Also ,write the transit location as the country arriving from ....
The cabin crew will advise you to either collect the baggage before or after your Emigration check.
The US emigration department has counters in all major port of entries in US and you should stand in line with all your documents and the transfer letter/deputation letter to US ,with your stamped passport (Along with spouse's)
There you would be asked the standard questions that were asked to you during your Visa interview and may call your manager in US/primary contact as the need be.
The Emigration officer will tear the I94 bottom slip and write your visa validity and staple it to your passport.
Check all details before you leave the counter,if the date is different from your visa date..check with him again
Whatever the emigration officer writes is the final word (even if your visa stamp says 3 years and if the Emigration officer decides it is 2 years,then so be it),you will be allowed to stay for 2 years only.
