Processing Information

Our goal at USCIS is to process all applications fairly. The processing time will vary, depending on the specific

circumstances of each case. We may deny an application if you do not give us the requested information or do not go to

a scheduled interview.

Acceptance

USCIS will reject any Form I-102 that is not signed or accompanied by the correct fee with a notice that Form I-102 is

deficient. You may correct the deficiency and resubmit the application. However, an application is not considered

properly filed until it is accepted by USCIS.

Initial Processing

Once USCIS accepts your application, we will check it for completeness, including any required initial evidence. If you

do not completely fill out the form or file it without the required initial evidence, you will not establish a basis for

eligibility, and we may deny your application.

Requests for More Information or Interview

We may request more information or evidence from you, or we may request that you appear at a USCIS office for an

interview. We may also request that you submit the originals of any copy. We will return these originals when they are

no longer needed.

Decision

The decision on Form I-102 involves a determination of whether you have established eligibility for the requested benefit.

USCIS will notify you of the decision in writing. If the application is approved, USCIS will issue you a new Form I-94,

I-94W, or I-95.
