Instructions for Request to Enforce Affidavit of Financial Support

and Intent to Petition for Custody for Pub. L. 97-359 Amerasian

USCIS

Department of Homeland Security

Form I-363

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

What is the Purpose of Form I-363?

A guarantee of financial support and intent to petition for legal custody (Form I-361, Affidavit of Financial Support and

Intent to Petition for Legal Custody for P. L. 97-359 Amerasian), may be enforced with respect to an alien against the

alien’s sponsor in a civil suit by using Form I-363.

This action may be brought by the Attorney General in the United States district court for the district in which the sponsor

resides, except that the sponsor’s estate is not liable under the guarantee if the sponsor dies or is determined to be bankrupt

under Title 11, United States Code.

If after admission to the United States, the beneficiary of a petition for a P.L. 97-359 Amerasian requires enforcement

of the guarantee of financial support and intent to petition for legal custody executed by the beneficiary’s sponsor, the

beneficiary may file this form with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

If the beneficiary is under 18 years of age, any agency or individual (other than the sponsor) having legal custody of the

applicant may file Form I-363.
