What is an Immigration Interview?
An immigration interview allows an officer to review your application and supporting documents. Most Green Card, citizenship, and some visa applicants must attend an interview.
What to Bring
- Government-issued photo ID (passport, driver’s license, etc.)
- Original documents (birth certificates, marriage certificates, etc.)
- Copies of your application and supporting evidence
- Any USCIS notice or appointment letter
- Additional documents listed in your appointment notice
What to Expect
- Security screening on arrival at the USCIS office or U.S. consulate
- Questions about your application, background, and supporting documents
- Interpreters are allowed if necessary—arrange in advance
Tips for a Successful Interview
- Be honest and concise
- Dress appropriately, as you would for a formal appointment
- Arrive at least 30 minutes early
- Bring a trusted attorney if you have ongoing legal representation
