What questions should I ask about immigration?
Who did you come with and who did you leave behind?
What happens if you lie to immigration?
Lying to an immigration officer can have extreme consequences including permanent inadmissibility, deportability, and not being allowed to apply for U.S. citizenship. Any person seeking a benefit under U.S. immigration law—a visa, permanent residency (a “green card”), or citizenship—must submit a written application.
Should I put N A on Uscis forms?
If a question does not apply, you still need to respond. For example, if you are asked “What is your current spouse’s nationality,” but you do not have a spouse, you should answer “N/A” because the question does not apply to your situation.
What happens if you fail immigration interview?

Who are called immigrants?
Migrants might be defined by foreign birth, by foreign citizenship, or by their movement into a new country to stay temporarily (sometimes for as little as one month) or to settle for the long-term. In some scholarly and everyday usage, people who move internally within national boundaries are called migrants.
Does immigration check text messages?
It doesn’t. The best strategy is simply to assume that anything you post online will be seen and examined by immigration authorities. Some immigration attorneys may even recommend that you refrain from social media use entirely while your visa or green card application is pending.
How can you avoid deportation?
You must meet certain requirements:
- you must have been physically present in the U.S. for 10 years;
- you must have good moral character during that time.
- you must show “exceptional and extremely unusual” hardship to your U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse, parent or child if you were to be deported.
Who can prepare immigration forms?
According to the USCIS, anyone may provide limited, non-legal help with immigration forms and charge for those services.

Does USCIS do home visits?
