It means:  Offering unwanted help or advice; meddlesome

Daily use:  Stop giving me your officious advice.  I can choose my own tie.

Memory trick: 
Officious

icious (reminds of)  =  Vicious = Angry
Back Off + Angry  = Back off,  it is making me angry
Back off with your unwanted advice,  it is making me angry
Listen: Officious
