I-130 Petition-Filing Locations for Family-Based Green Card

Make a photocopy of the entire package (including checks) before you send the petition. Retain all originals, because the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) may want to check them by issuing an RFE (Request For Evidence).

If you are filing a standalone application, you can do so either online by creating an account with USCIS here, or by mail.
