Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What happens after filing I-130 online?

If you have a USCIS online account and have access to secure messaging, you may select expedite as the reason for your inquiry and submit your request there. You generally need to justify your expedite request with evidence. When communicating with the Contact Center, you will be asked about supporting documentation.

What is the difference between I-130 and I-130 A?

You must file a separate Form I-130 for each eligible relative unless they can be considered a derivative beneficiary. See the form instructions for more information. If you submit a petition for your spouse, you must also submit Form I-130A, Supplemental Information for Spouse Beneficiary.

Is it better to file USCIS online or on paper?

Online submissions of Form I-130, the petition for Alien Relative, typically result in immediate receipt confirmation, whereas paper filings can take longer to receive an acknowledged receipt due to mailing times.

Is it better to submit I-130 online or by mail?

Once you submit your Form I-130 online, we will send a receipt notice to your USCIS online account. Provide a copy of the receipt notice to your relative to include in their Form I-485 packet. You cannot file your Form I-130 online if you are applying for a fee waiver.

How do I get a copy of my 130 form?

You can obtain a new copy of your I-130 approval notice by filing Form I-824, Application for Action on an Approved Application, or Petition.

Is it better to file I-130 online or by mail?

As long as the qualifying relationship between the petitioner and beneficiary is upheld, the approved I-130 petition remains valid. This validity persists if the petitioner maintains their U.S. citizenship or permanent resident status.
