Fix a Mistake on Your Immigration Form

Made a goof on your immigration application? Don't panic! Here's a quick guide to fixing it:

Before Submitting:

  • Catch a mistake? Simply cross out the wrong info and write the correct info clearly.

  • Keep corrections neat and avoid using correction fluid/tape. If unsure, start over with a new form.

After Submitting (but not approved):

  • Write a letter explaining the mistake and providing the correct information.

  • Include your details (name, alien registration number, receipt number) and send it to USCIS.

After Approval:

  • Fixing errors after approval can be trickier. You might need a new application or USCIS help (if it was their mistake).

Key Takeaway:

  • Double-check everything before submitting!

  • Need help? Consult an immigration attorney or accredited representative.
