Fairfax Field Office- Interview Experience- Delayed Opening
My interview was scheduled in the morning at 6:40am. The federal offices in the area was opening 3 hours late and it was reflected in the USCIS offices closings webpage (https://www.uscis.gov/about-us/uscis-office-closings). I went there around 8:30 am and to my surprise the office was open already and it was flooded with interview applicants. Because of the weather, they followed first come-first serve procedure and called the names.

Lesson : If a field office is forced to open later than normal, it is best to appear for one’s appointment as close to the scheduled time as possible, assuming travel conditions are safe. Applicants should be prepared to wait for extended periods of time in such situations.

The officer asked general questions about the application and I had a traffic ticket violation. He asked if it was reckless driving and I said No. I also submitted my drivers record from DMV to prove my case and he took it in his file. The interview lasted around 20 mins. Here are some of the questions asked to me and I believe his computer randomly generated the questions for him.

What is the “rule of law”?
How old do citizens have to be to vote for President?*
What major event happened on September 11, 2001, in the United States?
What ocean is on the West Coast of the United States?
Why does the flag have 13 stripes?
What is the name of the national anthem?

I passed my interview and I will be waiting for oath ceremony.

Good Luck to everyone.
