Hello, im 17 yrs old and i have a Immigration Interview on jan 18th 2007. My Dad filed the I-130 on Jan 1998 and the day Finally Came to see weather or Not Im a Permanant Residence. The Question i have is that Like i entered the US back in 1989 when i was 3 months old, illeagal, im not sure what kind of questions THe Officer will ask. Im worried so much that i dont think Im going to Pass Because i will not remember answer to questions that have to do in the Past, like when i was Small. and i dunno if i could speak for my dad since he does not know any English, so should i bring an interperter? or can i talk for him?Any One else had an Immigration Interview thats similar to the case i have or just any Interviews? Please dont mind Sharing your Answer as i will gladly appreciate them. Again Please Help me. THanks

Since you have only known life in the USA , that is all you can tell them. You never had a life anywhere else so there are no lies to tell. All you can do is tell the truth and since you've been here all your life - 3 months, there can't be anything that can get you in trouble.
I don't know why the interview has taken so long but you speak English so you don't really need an interpreter.
It really boils down to how the bureaucracy will roll at this time. They could be hard assses & say leave but I would just try to point out you've been here forever and are good, law abiding citizens.
You really should have asked these questions a very long time ago , waiting until the 11th hour was not wise.
Our prayers are with you tho . . .

You can find a good example on http://www.geocities.com/citizenshiptest/interview/html
You'd better call in advance for an interperter because I'm not certain they will let his son translate. They will probably be asking history and government questions that are fairly easy if you have studied. I would suggest brushing him up. If it is your dad that is filing for citizenship, they may want him in there alone with the interpertor. I don't think they would privy in case you passed him the answers while asking the question.
Good luck, kiddo.

I truly love hearing an intelligent question like yours. Not sure about the law on his one. I would recommend contacting i.n.s. to make sure. Good luck!!!. What military service are you considering??Have a great time either way

Don't sweat it, it's just part of the usual routine process before they rubber stamp the approval.
Have a nice evening!
