USCIS Chicago Field Office

The USCIS Chicago Field Office serves applicants in the area for in-person services such as naturalization and adjustment of status interviews. USCIS decides immigration benefits and is separate from the immigration court, which handles removal proceedings. Appointments are scheduled by an official notice, so attend on the date and time listed and arrive early to allow for security screening, where you can generally expect to show identification and pass through a checkpoint. Bring the appointment notice, a government-issued photo ID, your green card or other immigration documents, and the originals and copies of anything requested in your letter. If you need a language interpreter for an interview, review the current USCIS guidance on interpreter policies before your appointment. Do not bring prohibited items, and follow the instructions in your notice. Verify office details and any appointment requirements through the official USCIS website before you travel. This is general information and not legal advice; consult a licensed attorney about your specific case.
