General reference only: The forms listed for each goal are commonly associated with it — they are not a recommendation for your situation. The right form depends on your individual circumstances. Consult a licensed immigration attorney or DOJ-accredited representative for advice about your case.

Immigration law is complex and fact-specific. If you need help with your case, consider consulting a licensed immigration attorney or a DOJ-accredited representative.

How to use it

Step by step

  1. 1 Select an immigration goal from the dropdown (e.g. "Renew a green card").
  2. 2 Read the list of forms commonly associated with that goal.
  3. 3 Click any form to see its detail page (purpose, fee, processing range).
  4. 4 Remember: which form is right for you depends on your individual situation — consult an attorney.

Frequently asked questions

Does this tell me which form I should file?

No. This tool lists forms commonly used for general goals — it is a reference only, not eligibility advice. The right form for your situation depends on your individual circumstances, immigration history, and current status. Only a licensed immigration attorney or DOJ-accredited representative can advise you on your specific case.

Why do some goals list multiple forms?

Many immigration goals require filing more than one form — for example, applying for a green card from inside the U.S. typically involves both I-485 (adjustment of status) and often I-765 (work permit) and I-131 (travel document) concurrently. The forms shown are the commonly associated set, not an exhaustive or case-specific list.

What if my goal is not listed?

This tool covers the most common goals. For less common situations — asylum, special immigrant visas, humanitarian parole, etc. — consult an immigration attorney or visit uscis.gov directly.
