We are not a government agency. We help you understand and prepare. File Form I-765 with USCIS — online through a USCIS online account for eligible categories, or by mail to the filing address USCIS lists for your category.

We don’t assume anything — you tell us. Nothing here is sent to the agency.

Did you submit it?
