Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status

Are you filing with an attorney or accredited representative who has signed Form G-28?. Select No if you are filing pro se (without a lawyer). Most pro se applicants do.

• Pro se filers leave unchecked. If represented, attorney files G-28 with the I-485.

Volag number (if your representative is from a recognized non-profit, otherwise leave blank). A four-digit number issued to recognized non-profit immigration legal-aid organizations. Pro se applicants leave this blank.

• Only filled by accredited representatives at BIA-recognized voluntary agencies.

Attorney state bar number (if applicable). Your attorney's state bar number, if represented. Pro se applicants leave this blank.

• Attorney's state bar number; pro se filers leave blank.

Attorney's USCIS Online Account Number (if any). Your attorney's USCIS Online Account Number (not yours). Pro se applicants leave this blank.

• Attorney's myUSCIS account number; 12 digits or blank.

Required. 8 or 9 digits, on every I-797 receipt notice from USCIS, every I-94 issued at entry, and on EAD / advance-parole cards. Repeats on every page header (24 instances on the printed form).

• Mistyping the A-Number (transposed digits) causes USCIS to fail to match the A-File and pause the case 60-90 days.
• Not knowing the A-Number: pull it from any prior USCIS notice, the I-94 record at i94.cbp.dhs.gov, or the EAD.

Applicant's full legal family name as it appears on passport, prior I-797 notices, and the I-94. Match exactly.

• Spelling differs from passport / underlying petition: USCIS issues an RFE asking for evidence of identity.

Applicant's full legal given (first) name. Match passport.

• Legal given (first) name; not nickname.
• Match the spelling on the underlying I-130 / I-140 / I-589.

Item 1: Your current legal Middle Name (if any). Leave blank if you do not have a middle name. If you have multiple middle names, list them in the order they appear on your identity document.

• Blank if none; do not write 'NMN'.

Item 2: First other name you have used since birth, Family Name. List any other family name you have used since birth: maiden name, prior married name, religious name, transliterated spelling, anything you have signed legally. Leave blank if you have only ever used your current legal name. USCIS cross-checks every other name against the FBI name-check database; missing an alias here is the single most common cause of an adjustment-of-status delay.

• Maiden name and any prior names used in any official document.
• Aliases on prior immigration filings must appear here; omitting them triggers RFEs.

Item 2: First other name, Given Name. Given (first) name from your first other name.

• Other given name 1.

Item 2: First other name, Middle Name. Middle name from your first other name, if any.

• Other middle name 1; blank if none.

Item 2: Second other name you have used since birth, Family Name. If you have used more than two other names, attach a separate sheet using Part 14 (Additional Information) at the end of the form to list them. The form provides only two rows.

• Second alias / prior family name.

Item 2: Second other name, Given Name. Given (first) name from your second other name.

• Second alias given name.

Item 2: Second other name, Middle Name. Middle name from your second other name, if any.

• Second alias middle name.

Applicant's date of birth.

• MM/DD/YYYY (U.S. format).
• Critical for child-derivative aging-out under CSPA; if your DOB on the underlying petition was different, list both with explanation in Part 14.

Item 3: Have you ever used a date of birth different from the one above?. Some applicants have a different DOB on a passport, school records, or older immigration documents because of calendar conversion or family-recorded birth dates. If so, list each different DOB exactly as it appears on those documents. Saying No when there is a discrepancy in your file triggers an RFE.

• Yes if you have ever used a different DOB on any official document; common with applicants whose passports vs. birth certificates conflict.

Item 3.b: First other date of birth (if you answered Yes above). Required only when you answered Yes to using another DOB. Otherwise leave blank.

• First alternate DOB used in the past.

Item 3.c: Second other date of birth (if applicable). If you have a third or fourth other DOB, list them on a Part 14 (Additional Information) overflow page; the form provides space for two.

• Second alternate DOB used in the past.

Item 4: Have you ever been issued an Alien Registration Number other than the one in the page header?. If USCIS or a predecessor agency (INS) has ever issued you an A-Number under a different name or a different application, answer Yes and list it. Saying No when there is an old A-Number on file triggers an RFE because USCIS will find it during the background check.

• Yes if you have ever been assigned an A-Number other than the one in Part 1.
• Common with applicants who had a prior immigration case (asylum, T/U visa, deportation proceedings).

Item 4: Other A-Number (if you answered Yes above). Format A followed by 8 or 9 digits.

• Prior A-Number; 8 or 9 digits.

Item 5: Have you ever applied for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status before?. Answer Yes if you have ever filed a previous I-485, I-130 beneficiary application, or DS-260 immigrant visa application. List the previous A-Numbers below.

• Yes if you have ever applied for adjustment of status before, regardless of outcome.
• Required disclosure; USCIS cross-checks prior filings.

Item 5.a: First prior A-Number from a previous application. Required only when you answered Yes to a prior application. Format A followed by 8 or 9 digits.

• A-Number from prior I-485 filing.

Item 5.b: Second prior A-Number from a previous application. If you have more than two prior A-Numbers, list the rest on a Part 14 overflow page.

• Second A-Number from prior filings if any.

Item 6: Sex. USCIS expects the sex marker that matches your most recent identity document (passport, state ID, or prior USCIS record). The form provides only Male and Female; non-binary applicants typically pick the marker on their current passport for consistency. If your gender marker has changed legally, file your court order or amended birth certificate as supporting evidence.

• Choice; biographic field.

Item 7.a: City or town of birth. City as it appears on your birth certificate. Use the contemporary spelling; do not translate.

• City as on birth certificate.

Country of birth at time of birth (use historical country names where applicable, e.g. USSR before 1991, Yugoslavia before 1992). Drives chargeability under the visa bulletin.

• Country at time of your birth.
• Stateless applicants list country of habitual residence at birth and 'Stateless' in Part 14.

All current countries of citizenship or nationality. List each separately if dual or multiple.

• All current nationalities, comma-separated.
• Stateless applicants write 'Stateless'.

Item 9: Your USCIS Online Account Number (if any). If you have a USCIS Online Account, your 12-digit Online Account Number is in the upper-left of your dashboard. Pro se applicants without an account leave this blank; you do not need an online account to file on paper.

• 12 digits from myUSCIS dashboard; pro se filers without an account leave blank.

Item 10.a: Passport number used at your last entry to the U.S. If you entered on a passport, give the passport number from the passport bio page. Leave blank if you entered on a Refugee Travel Document, an Advance Parole document, or were paroled in without a passport (TPS, Cuban Adjustment, etc.).

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.b: Travel document number used at last entry (if not a passport). If you entered on a Refugee Travel Document (Form I-571), Advance Parole (Form I-512), or Reentry Permit (Form I-327), give that document number here. Leave blank if you used a passport.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.c: Expiration date of passport or travel document used (mm/dd/yyyy). Expiration date as printed on the passport or travel document.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.d: Nonimmigrant visa number from your last entry, if any. The eight-character visa foil number printed in the lower-right of your visa. Required if you were admitted on a visa (B, F, H, J, K, L, O, etc.). Leave blank for visa-waiver entries (ESTA), parole, asylee, refugee, or TPS entries.

• Typing the receipt number from a past I-797 instead of the A-Number; the A-Number is on the green card / EAD / I-94 record, not on a notice receipt.
• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.e: City of last U.S. entry (port of entry). City of the airport, land border crossing, or seaport where you last entered. Pull this from your I-94 record or admission stamp; if you do not have either, search i94.cbp.dhs.gov for your travel history.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.f: State of last U.S. entry. Two-letter state code matching the city above (e.g. CA for San Francisco, NY for JFK Airport, TX for Houston).

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.g: Date of last entry to the U.S. (mm/dd/yyyy). Pull from your I-94 admission record at i94.cbp.dhs.gov. The date USCIS uses to count physical-presence and good-faith-presence runs from this date.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 10.h: I-94 authorized stay expiration date (mm/dd/yyyy). From your most recent I-94 record. Some statuses (asylee, TPS, refugee) show a status notation rather than a specific date; in that case leave blank and explain on a Part 14 overflow page.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 11: Last entry classification. Pick admitted-on-visa, admitted-VWP (Visa Waiver Program), paroled, or other. Drives adjustment-of-status eligibility under INA 245.

• VWP entries are barred from adjustment of status for non-IR cases (INA 245(c)). VWP applicants who file as non-immediate-relative typically face denial.
• Entries without inspection (EWI) are barred from most adjustments; the applicant must usually leave and consular-process unless they qualify for INA 245(i) grandfathering.

Item 11: Class of admission (if admitted on a visa, e.g. F-1, H-1B, B-2). Class of admission as printed on your I-94 (B-2, F-1, H-1B, K-1, etc.). Required only when you were admitted on a visa.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 11: Parole category (if paroled, e.g. humanitarian parole, Ukraine parolee). Required only when you were paroled. Use the parole-category notation on your I-94 (e.g. PIP for parole-in-place, U4U for Uniting-for-Ukraine).

Item 11: Other admission category (describe). Required only when you picked Other above. Brief description of the basis of your last entry.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 12.a: Name as it appears on your I-94 record, Family Name. Sometimes a clerk transcribes your name differently from your passport (extra space, typo, transliteration variant). If your I-94 spelling differs from your current legal name, enter the I-94 spelling here so USCIS can match the records.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 12.b: Name as it appears on your I-94, Given Name. Given (first) name exactly as printed on your I-94, even if misspelled.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 12.c: Date of arrival per the I-94 record (mm/dd/yyyy). Date of arrival as printed on the I-94. Usually matches item 10.g; the form asks twice because old I-94 paper records sometimes had a different date than CBP's electronic record.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 12.d: Status on the I-94 record. Status as printed on the I-94 (e.g. F-1, H-1B, B-2, PAR for parole). Should match item 11.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 12.e: I-94 record number (11-digit admission number). Look up your I-94 record at i94.cbp.dhs.gov. The 11-digit admission number is at the top of the printable I-94. If you have a paper I-94 from before 2013, the 11-digit number is in the upper-left.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 13: Have you ever been in removal, exclusion, rescission, or deportation proceedings?. Answer Yes if you have ever received a Notice to Appear, been before an immigration judge, or been ordered removed (even if the order was later vacated). USCIS treats Yes as a flag for further review, not an automatic denial; saying No when there is a record is far worse than saying Yes truthfully.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 14: Your current immigration status. What status do you hold today? Examples: F-1 student, H-1B worker, asylee (granted asylum), TPS El Salvador, parolee under U4U, K-1 fiance(e), out of status (overstay). Be specific; USCIS uses this to confirm whether you are eligible to adjust under your selected category.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 15: Date your current status expires (mm/dd/yyyy). Authorized stay expiration as on your most recent I-94 or USCIS notice. Leave blank if your status has no expiration (asylee, refugee, special-immigrant juvenile). If you are out of status, leave blank and answer Yes to item 16.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 16: Are you currently in lawful immigration status?. Answer No if you are out of status (overstay, dropped out of school on F-1, terminated employment on H-1B more than the grace period). Out-of-status filers can still adjust under INA section 245(i) (grandfathered before April 30, 2001) or under VAWA, T, U, asylee, or special-immigrant juvenile rules; the wizard will route you in Part 2.

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 17: Have you ever filed Form I-485 or applied for an immigrant visa before?. Answer Yes if you have ever filed an I-485 (even if denied or withdrawn) or applied at a consulate for an immigrant visa (DS-260). USCIS will pull the prior file and review for inconsistencies. Saying No when there is a prior filing is treated as a misrepresentation under INA section 212(a)(6)(C).

• Using the I-94 expiration as last entry date; the entry date is the date you crossed, not the I-94 status expiration.

Item 18.a: In care of name on your mailing address (if mail goes to someone else). Use only if your mail is delivered care of another person (e.g. a family member, an attorney, a shelter). Leave blank otherwise.

Item 18.g: Is your mailing address the same as your current physical address?. Answer No if you actually live somewhere else (e.g. mail goes to a P.O. box but you live in an apartment). USCIS uses the physical address for jurisdiction-routing the case to the correct field office.

• If yes, leave the physical-address block blank; if no, fill physical address.

Item 18.h: In care of name on your current physical address. Leave blank unless someone else's name is on the lease or deed.

Item 18.i: Have you lived at your current physical address for the last 5 years?. If No, list every address where you have lived during the past 5 years using the two prior-address blocks below. If you have more than two prior addresses in 5 years, attach the rest on a Part 14 overflow page.

• 9 digits, no dashes; match SSA records.
• Blank only if you have never been issued an SSN.

Item 19: Do you want the Social Security Administration to issue you a Social Security card?. If you answer Yes here, USCIS will share your I-485 data with SSA, and SSA will mail you a card automatically once your green card is issued. Most applicants say Yes; saying No just means you will need to visit an SSA office in person after approval.

• If yes, USCIS will share your I-485 data with SSA so they can issue you an SSN card or replacement after green-card issuance.
• Saves a separate trip to SSA.

Item 19: Do you authorize disclosure of your information from this application to the Social Security Administration?. USCIS needs your written consent (a check in this box) to share data with SSA.

• Required consent for USCIS-SSA data sharing if you requested an SSN card.

Item 1: Are you filing this I-485 concurrently with the underlying immigrant petition (Form I-130, I-140, I-360, I-526, etc.)?. Concurrent filing means you submit the I-485 in the same envelope as the underlying petition. USCIS allows this for immediate-relative I-130s, current-priority-date I-140s, asylee/refugee adjustments, and a few other categories. If your priority date is not yet current or your underlying petition is still pending separately, answer No and provide the receipt number below.

• Yes if you are filing the I-485 at the same time as the underlying I-130 / I-140; otherwise no.
• Concurrent filing requires the underlying petition to be eligible (e.g., immediate relatives, current priority date, special categories).

Item 2: Status of the underlying petition. If the underlying petition is already approved, you have an approval notice (Form I-797) with a receipt number. If it is still pending, USCIS sent you a receipt notice when they accepted it; the receipt number is on that notice.

• Status of the underlying petition: pending, approved, concurrent, etc.

Item 2: A-Number of the principal beneficiary (if you are a derivative). Required only when you are a derivative. Format A followed by 8 or 9 digits.

• Typing the receipt number from a past I-797 instead of the A-Number; the A-Number is on the green card / EAD / I-94 record, not on a notice receipt.

The single most consequential field on I-485. Drives the filing fee, the supporting evidence USCIS expects, which Part 9 eligibility block applies, and whether I-912 fee waiver is available. Pick exactly one of 50+ sub-categories under family-based, employment-based, special-immigrant, asylee or refugee, registry, humanitarian, or other.

• Selecting a family-based category without an approved or concurrent I-130: USCIS rejects.
• Selecting an employment-based category without an approved I-140 or concurrent filing eligibility: USCIS rejects.
• Asylees apply at one year from grant; selecting Item 3.d before the one-year mark causes USCIS to deny under INA 209.
• Confusing IR (immediate relative) with F-category (preference): IR is filed any time the priority date is automatic; F-categories require visa-bulletin currency.

Item 3.g: If you picked Other above, describe the eligibility category. Required only when you picked the Item 3.g Other option. Be specific (e.g. 'Hmong veteran adjustment under section 1059'). USCIS rejects vague entries.

• Date asylum was granted; required for asylee-based adjustment.
• Asylees can adjust 1 year after grant under INA section 209(b).

Item 3.d: Refugee admission date (mm/dd/yyyy), if you picked Refugee above. Date you were admitted to the U.S. as a refugee. Required only for refugees adjusting under INA 209(a). You must wait at least one year from admission before filing I-485.

• Date you were admitted as a refugee; required for refugee-based adjustment.
• Refugees can adjust 1 year after admission under INA section 209(a).

If you are a derivative on a family-based or employment-based petition, what is the principal applicant's relationship to you?. Required for derivatives. The principal applicant is the person on whose petition you are riding (e.g. your spouse if you are an EB-2 derivative, your parent if you are an F-2A child).

• Relationship to principal applicant (spouse, child).

If you are a derivative, are you the spouse, child, or other dependent of the principal?. Pick the role you have on the principal's petition. Spouse and child of an EB principal both adjust under the same priority date.

• Type of derivative: spouse, child.

If you are filing on an I-140 (employment-based), what is your association with the I-140 petitioner?. Required only for I-140-based filings. The principal is the I-140 worker; spouse and child can adjust as derivatives under the same approved I-140.

• Required for employment-based applicants; identifies the I-140 petition you are adjusting under.

Item 4: Are you the principal applicant or a derivative?. Self-confirmation of the role you hold on this filing. The principal applicant is the person directly named on the underlying petition; derivatives are spouses or children eligible to adjust at the same time under the principal's category.
