G-884, Request for the
Return of Original Documents
OMB No. 1615-0100; Expires 08/31/08
Instructions
Please read the instructions carefully. If you do not follow the instructions, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) may have to return
your petition, which may delay final action. If you need more space to complete the answer, use a separate sheet(s) of paper. Write your name and
Alien Registration Number (A#), if you have one, at the top of each sheet and indicate the number of the item relating to your answer.
Use Form G-884 to request the return of original
documents submitted to establish eligibility for an
immigration or citizenship benefit.
You need to give us:
A completed and signed Form G-884; and
Supporting documentation.
To file this request, see Step 2 for specific instructions.
When Should I Use Form G-884?
You should use Form G-884 if you submitted original
documents to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) with a petition, application or request, and you are
now seeking to have those documents returned to you.
Furnishing the information requested on the form and
submitting the required supporting documents will assist
USCIS to locate and return the documents requested.
How Do I File Form G-884?
You only need to submit one Form G-884 if you are
requesting multiple documents contained in a single USCIS
file. However, if the requested documentation is in more than
one USCIS file, you must submit separate requests.
(Example: If you wish to obtain your mother's birth
certificate and your parent's marriage certificate, both of
which are in the USCIS file that pertains to her, submit one
Form G-884 with your mother's information.)
Follow the steps below to complete your request:
Step 1 - Fill out the Form G-884.
Step 2 - Submit your G-884.
USCIS wants to make sure that you are eligible to receive
the requested documents. To do this we may ask for more
evidence, interview you and/or conduct an inquiry. If you
misrepresent facts or otherwise engage in fraud, USCIS will
take appropriate action. This means we will not only deny
your request, you may lose current and future immigration
benefits. You may also face penalties, including criminal
and/or civil prosecutions leading to fines and/or
imprisonment.
Notice
Step 1. Fill Out the Form G-884.
Use black ink. Type or print clearly using capital letters. If
an item does not apply to you, write "N/A." If the answer is

This form is divided into Parts 1 through 3. The following
information should help you fill out the form.
