?⚖️ What Is a USCIS Petition?
A USCIS petition is a formal request made to the U.S. government to allow a foreign national to enter or remain in the United States under a specific immigration category. Common types of USCIS petitions include:
Family-based immigration (Form I-130, I-129F)
Employment-based immigration (Form I-140)
Adjustment of status (Form I-485)
Non-immigrant work visas (H-1B, O-1, L-1 via Form I-129)
Asylum, waivers, and humanitarian programs
Naturalization (Form N-400)
Each of these petitions has specific documentation requirements and legal implications. One error or omission can lead to delays or rejections.
