New Online Filing Immigration System USCIS ELIS

New Online Filing Immigration System USCIS ELIS

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is moving toward green (environmental) modernization. On May 22, 2012, USCIS will launch a new online immigration system to streamline the filing processes of certain immigration benefits. The new online immigration system is known as USCIS Electronic Immigration System (USCIS ELIS) and will be released in phases. Initially, certain applicants will be able to conduct online filing of Form I-539, Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status. Additional types of online filings of immigration benefits will be gradually introduced into USCIS ELIS, with improvements to the systems functionality. Eventually, USCIS ELIS will enable online filings for all immigration benefits. Optional paper filings may still be available.
