Submitting to USCIS

Once you have your application, use the easy-to-follow SimpleCitizen filing instructions to guide you. All you have to do is sign the forms, add your passport photos (when applicable) and payment for the government fees, and then mail your application to USCIS!

messaging and tracking

Tracking the USCIS Process

While you wait for USCIS to process your application, we will track the progress and alert you of important milestones. If things are moving too slow, we will connect you to resources to help get it back on track. If USCIS needs more information, we will help you respond to any requests for evidence (RFE).

approval

Getting Approved!

Many applicants are scheduled for an interview at their local USCIS office as the last step. If this happens, we will help you prepare and get ready with everything you need to know. Finally, you should be approved and you’re done. Unless you’ve received US citizenship, we will be here, ready to help you prepare the next application in your US immigration journey.

While we cannot guarantee any outcome with USCIS, we will be by your side throughout your entire process until a decision is made on your case. We do everything possible to work with you to identify issues and address anything that might complicate your case. This is an important part of our responsibility and commitment to each of our customers.

100% satisfaction guarantee

I’ve been using SimpleCitizen since my conditional green card application, then removal of conditions, and now my citizenship application. They have been professional, fast, and incredibly helpful throughout my entire immigration journey.

What impressed me most is their amazing customer service — they often replied to my emails within minutes during office hours and always helped me update my status or answer questions without any hassle. Immigration can be stressful, but SimpleCitizen has made the process so much smoother. Highly recommend!

Mi experiencia con SimpleCitizen ha sido MUY MUY buena, utilice la plataforma cuando me casé para aplicar a la greencard y ahora para remover las condiciones de la greencard. Siempre han sido demasiado amables y me han ayudado con cada una de las preguntas. Incluso tuve un inconveniente con el tiempo para aplicar al formulario y ellos hicieron todo lo posible por ayudarme y priorizar mi caso. Los recomiendo mil por ciento.

I went through three processes—Adjustment of Status, Removal of Conditions, and Citizenship—and all were successful! Simple Citizen was a fantastic guide; if something wasn't quite right, they would notify you and help you fix it. I’ve recommended it to several friends, and it worked wonders for them, too! Many thanks for all the support.

This made the initial process super simple, they helped me compile all the evidence I needed and the complete application with forms and evidence arrived right at my door ready to be shipped to USCIS, the attention is super personalized and quick, whenever I had a question, it never took more than a few hours to respond, I’d use it again and I’d totally recommend it to anyone interested in applying to a GreenCard!

A great solid company to work with. I didn't have any issues paperwork-wise with my case, and was approved after interview! I recommend getting the package with the attorney consultations as that was very valuable! Thank you Simple Citizen :D

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to expand and learn more!

  • How does SimpleCitizen work?
  • After you complete the eligibility quiz and sign up for your SimpleCitizen account, you will officially start your journey with us by filling out your SimpleCitizen questionnaire - which collects all the information needed to fill out your USCIS forms. Throughout the questionnaire, you will be asked to upload certain documents that help support your application and prove your eligibility for the immigration benefit you are requesting from USCIS. SimpleCitizen will also translate any government-issued documents that are required by USCIS for you. Once your questionnaire is complete and your supporting documents have been uploaded and translated, you will submit your application for review by an independent licensed immigration attorney. The average wait time for attorney reviews is 5-10 business days.After the attorney completes their legal review, you will then be assigned to a case manager who will share the attorney’s feedback and easy-to-follow instructions on how to improve your application using the tools available with your SimpleCitizen account. Once you have made the requested changes, you will carefully review a PDF version of your compiled application and approve it for finalization. Depending on your package tier, we can even ship the entire application to your home or a FedEx office for pickup. You will just need to sign your forms, include your applicable USCIS fees, passport-sized photos (if required), and mail the package to USCIS following the detailed instructions we have included in your package.Read More
  • How much does the immigration process cost?
  • Here at SimpleCitizen, our mission is to streamline the immigration process by making it easier to understand and more affordable.

  • How do I know if I can use SimpleCitizen and am eligible to apply for immigration benefits?
  • We get it. Determining whether you are eligible for an immigration benefit can be very difficult for some people. That’s why we’ve created our eligibility quiz. By answering just a few questions, our software can help you figure out which immigration benefits you might qualify for on your own. After you determine your eligibility, you can get started on your selected application type. Contact our live chat for support if you have questions as you go through the quiz. We’d be happy to assist you!
  • I’m trying to decide between your Essentials, Enhanced, and Professional packages. How can I choose which package is best for me?
  • If you’re looking for a streamlined approach to preparing your application, but still want the peace of mind only an attorney review of your documents can provide, then our Essentials package offers just what you're looking for. However, if speaking directly with an immigration attorney about your situation is something you think you need to feel confident about your immigration journey, consider our Enhanced or Professional packages. If you need advice about your situation, are nervous about the interview, or just want the opportunity to sit down and talk with an immigration attorney and your options, we recommend signing up for the Professional package. While there are a lot of similarities between the Enhanced and Professional packages, the Professional package is unique in that it includes a total of three attorney consultations. While the Enhanced package offers the best value, the Professional package provides the greatest level of support.Please note: SimpleCitizen is not a law firm. We provide access to attorney support through our network of independent immigration attorneys not employed by SimpleCitizen.
  • Who will be reviewing my application?
  • SimpleCitizen partners with a network of independent immigration attorneys who review all of the applications generated by SimpleCitizen customers. Immigration attorney legal reviews usually include recommendations about making an application more accurate and complete while providing legal advice tailored to your situation. This helps make sure you are putting your best foot forward and can more successfully navigate submitting your application to USCIS.
  • How long does it take to have the application finalized and ready to send to USCIS?
  • A lot of the process timeline depends on how quickly you work through your application, provide your documents and submit for review and feedback. On average it takes approximately 2 weeks from start to finish. Some people complete everything super fast, some people take longer. Here at SimpleCitizen, we work hard to get you the feedback on your application as quickly as possible. Application reviews are completed in the order they are received, and the average turnaround time is approximately 5-10 business days. As soon as the feedback on your application is ready, you will be assigned a SimpleCitizen case manager who will share this feedback with you and guide you through the rest of the process. Once you have implemented the feedback provided, depending on the package you purchased, we will either send you a final PDF or we will ship the entire application to your address or a pickup location of your choice, ready to sign and send off to USCIS.
