USCIS Announces Credit Card Payment Option

02/14/2018

Today the USCIS announced that it will accept credit card payments for filing fees for the 41 fee-based forms processed at USCIS Lockbox facilities.

To pay by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover, applicants must use the Form G-1450, Authorization for Credit Card Transaction. USCIS has stated that it will enter the applicant's credit card data into the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Pay.gov system and then destroy their Form G-1450 afterwards to protect credit card information.

USCIS has already been accepting credit card payments for naturalization applicants and those renewing or replacing their green cards online. Since 2015, USCIS has also been accepting credit card payments for naturalization forms filed at Lockbox facilities.
