What does “immigration benefit” mean?
Meaning: Something you get from immigration, like a green card or visa.
How the officer may ask it
“Have you ever lied to get an immigration benefit?”
How to answer
Listen carefully and answer only what is asked. If the officer asks what the word means, explain it in simple words, like: “Something you get from immigration, like a green card or visa.” If something on your N-400 is unclear or you are not sure how to answer, talk to an immigration attorney before the interview — this is not legal advice.
