USCIS Launches New and Improved Website

Web Portal will serve as a “one stop shop” for all U.S. immigration and citizenship information

Washington, DC – One of the most trafficked websites in the Federal government has a fresh new look. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has replaced its old website with a new, more effective, www.uscis.gov. USCIS hosts an average of redesigned Web Portal available at the same Internet address, 135,000 daily visitors for a total of nearly six million total visits a month.

The improved Web Portal will serve as a “one stop shop” for all information about U.S. immigration and citizenship. Visitors to the “new” USCIS.gov will find it easier to download petitions and applications, file forms electronically, and sign up online for appointments at their local district offices using InfoPass. The new site is easier to navigate, visitors can use the built-in search engine to easily locate needed information
and can find answers to their immigration questions through the interactive “How Do I…?” page.

“USCIS.gov is often the first point of contact for USCIS applicants, their families and the interested public. Our previous website left many of those visitors without answers to their questions,” said USCIS Director Emilio Gonzalez. “With the launch of the new Web Portal, visitors will find the in-demand information they need within a sleek, modern framework. You’re going to like the updated Web Portal, it’s a giant step forward for our agency and a helpful new tool for our applicants.”

Many of the pages that visitors have bookmarked have changed. Please refer to the USCIS Fact Sheet, “U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Launches New Website,” for new links to your favorites: Applications & Petitions, Services & Benefits, Information for Lawful Permanent Residents & Green Cards, e-filing, Booklets & Fact Sheets and InfoPass.

Please visit the new USCIS Web Portal at www.uscis.gov for answers to all your citizenship and immigration questions.
