Other Information

• Most students applying online for the first time will not have a USCIS Online Account number. If you previously filed online, the account number may auto-fill.
• Social Security: Answer as applies to your situation. If you are requesting a replacement Social Security card or if you would like to apply for Social Security for the first time, consent to the disclosure and provide your parents' details.
