Remember that you'll also have to collect checked luggage, pass customs, and recheck your luggage/escort it to the bag drop. Then you'll have to cross security again.

I believe a number of places publish queueing times (some airports ? The Louvre? ...) so I don't rule out that Newark does - at least until someone has a chance to answer.

With immigration clearance, it takes as long as it takes. Newark is often used as a Port of Entry by many non US citizens flying into the US. There are just too many factors involved. If it helps, from what I know about non US citizens arriving in extremely busy POEs such as JFK- NY, Dallas and Atlanta, usually, regular tourists will clear immigration in about an hour.
If you are on a single leg ticket, and if you miss your flight, you will be put on to the next available flight. In the US, mostly, if someone misses a domestic flight they are given an opportunity to fly in the next available flight if seats are available.

it takes as long as it takes and examples for JFK, Dallas and Atlanta but not EWR are IMO "not useful". Do you know anything relevant about non US citizens arriving at Newark?

And for US citizens, we would have difficulty in making it through in that amount of time and making a connection. I can attest to that for Newark, JFK, and ATL. Most recent ATL int'l arrival took just under 2 hours and I wasn't connecting.

@pnuts Even if someone cleared immigration yesterday (or even a few hours ago) at Newark no one can guarantee a time window for immigration clearance. If you think someone can, you are only kidding yourself. All one can do is give an estimate. By comparing it with even busier port of entries, I am only trying to be helpful. A broad question can only get broad answers
