Nobody cares about his beard, but as with any interview, job interview, meeting with government - I'd suggest that a clean and tidy appearance and dress is important (and yes, I have a beard, and yes, I trimmed it for a job interview on Friday for the first time in around 2 years).

There are hundreds of thousands of people, who come from muslim countries with beards into the USA every year. The beard isn't the issue.

Discrimination because of religion is illegal and a total violation of his civil rights.

BUT any time a government official has discretion to grant you something or not, a clean and tidy appearance can put that official in a better frame of mind. A good beard trim and neat haircut, together with nice clothes, can make the difference between granting and denial.
