Answers USCIS accepts

  • The President (of the United States)

Give any one of these answers at your interview.

The President of the United States signs bills to become laws.

What it means

After both the House and Senate pass a bill, it goes to the President. When the President signs it, it becomes law.

If the President vetoes it instead, Congress can still pass it with a two-thirds vote in both chambers.

Memory tip: Congress passes, President signs.
