Hi everyone,

I went for my interview today and the officer, he was very nice. I was asked 6 Que. & I wrote "We all pay taxes" and he didn't look at any of my paper that I had to take in with me, all he looked at was my green card & my Canadian passport and he gave them back to me. It only took 10-15 mins. I didn't take my husband with me because he had to work. I felt bad for a girl before me she failed her history & gov. test and they told her she has to wait 1 to 3 months.

Congrats!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Hi my interview is on february 9 2009 and I have been learning the 100 question the ask me to learn but I am still lost. Someone told me there is not going to be a test with (a,b,c,d) multiple choice but when I call the USCIS office they told me I will have a test of about 10 questions out of the 100 i learn and will also be asked a few. Did u take the NEW test and what was it like can any one who read this email let me know PLZ.

They will ask you 10 Que. and you have to answer 6 correctly. The Que. will not be multiple choice.

Verbal test, IO asks you a question, you fire back the answer, always nice to hear about good IO's, must be some nice ones around yet.

What about your oath letter, it ain't over until it's over, the results of the interview has to be approved by some authority, what I can gather, either a supervisor or the field manager at the field office, but some are told it's sent off someplace, so can be even more stress while waiting for that oath letter, but can open a letter only to find somebody wants more evidence, even though your IO passed you. Wife's application was misplaced, or so we were told.
