The Online USCIS Account system is very useful. You can submit filings instantly to USCIS and get all USCIS Notices electronically.

This guide will show you how to:

1. Set up a new USCIS Account
2. Add a new filing to an existing account

Before you start, remember the email you provided to us is the only way to link an online filing.

Setting Up a New Account

Step 1: Go to USCIS.GOV

Step 2: Registration Process

• Enter your email
• Check your email for a confirmation link and click it
• Accept the Terms of Use

Step 3: Create a Password

• The password should be 8 to 64 characters long. Keep it safe. Write it down, save it in an email, or use a password manager.

Step 4: Set up a 2-Step Verification Method

• Choose text message or email verification
• Save the backup code
• Choose and save five password reset answers

Step 5: Select Account Type

Step 6: Enter the Representative Code
