USCIS G-1450 Filing Guide

Quick answer

What is USCIS Form G-1450 used for?

If you are filing by mail, you may pay your filing fees with a credit, debit or prepaid card issued by a U.S. bank. We cannot accept a credit card issued by a foreign bank. For more information, visit our Pay With a Credit Card by Mail webpage.

G-1450 authorizes one card payment for a paper filing

Form G-1450 supplies credit-card information for an eligible filing processed through a USCIS lockbox. It belongs in the paper package and is separate from the immigration application or petition whose fee is being paid. Match the authorized amount to the current fee requirements and make sure the cardholder information, signature, billing details, and available credit are ready before mailing.

Do not use G-1450 as proof that the underlying benefit request is complete or eligible, and do not include it when the official filing channel requires another payment method. A declined or incorrectly authorized payment can cause the package to be rejected. Protect the completed form as sensitive financial data, keep it out of public case files, and follow the current USCIS instructions for placement within the lockbox package.
