U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

My appointment is 1200. I came there one hour early, but I did not wait for a long time. After I passed, the interviewer asked do I have any question. I never heard this sentence from any other interviewer except for school. I recommend this sentence. Jamie Kwon.

I had my citizenship interview this morning and the overall experience has been so stress-​free and positive that I decided to write an online review immediately.
I arrived on time for my appointment scheduled at 7:15 am and unfortunately there was already a long line of people who had to go through the metal detector.
This is understandable as it is a government building and the guards at the entrance were very friendly and professional.
I really liked the location and the parking in front of the building. I left my cell phone in the car as I know it is not allowed in the interview rooms.
I went up to the second flooor (room 2031) and gave my interview letter, then set to wait for over an hour for my name to be called so that I could go in and have my interview.
I was very nervous and while I was waiting I was able to review one last time some of the questions I prepared for.
It was a very emotional experience: I looked around me and I saw so many different faces from different ethnicities and all of us were eager to become US citizens.
It was an important moment and when my name was finally called, I was greated by USCIS Officer Christopher Lowe. He couldn’t have made my experience any better.
His demanour was very professional and calm and he immediately put me at ease when he understood I was feeling overwelmed.
He even shared a few jokes when I told him I was feeling self-​conscious about my Italian accent.
During the interview he went through the information in my file, and he then asked me to read three sentences from a paper he was holding.
He then dictated another sentence to proof my writing skills and asked me 6 of the 100 civics questions that we have to study to prepare for the Naturalization test. I was proud to answer them all correctly.
He then told me that I my application had been recommended for approval and informed me about the next steps before the Oath Cerimony notification.
He was very patient and answered all the questions I had.
For many of us, the interview day is filled with anxiethy: it is, after all, the day when you will be tested and judged fit to become an American. It is the day many of us prepare for years or months and sometimes we think of the US Governement as a faceless entity.
I know that years from now, when I will think of this important day in which I walked the important steps towards the US citizenship, the «welcome to the Unites States» which sometimes is said in a perfunctory way, had a face and a friendly smile to remember: those of Officer Christopher Lowe. Thanks again and God bless America!

Friendly security guards for a government building but make sure you have all your pockets emptied prior to passing through the metal detectors.

I had my citizenship interview scheduled for 7:55. I arrived at 8 am and luckily there wasn’t a long line to go through the metal detector. When I got to suite 2031 there were about 10 people already waiting. The check-​in guys were both very friendly and helpful. I waited for about 15 min til I was escorted to a private office across from the waiting area. My interviewer was Jamie Kwon, she was nice but not very talkative. The interview lasted about 10 min. The process was great and speedy. The facility was like most government type buildings. Love that it was convenient to park and easy to find!
