captured. Upon receipt of your form, USCIS will use the 2D barcode to extract the data from the form. Please do not

automatically returned to you.

Accommodations for Individuals With Disabilities and Impairments

USCIS is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities and impairments
that will help them fully participate in USCIS programs and benefits.

Draft
Not for
Production
01/18/2013

Reasonable accommodations vary with each disability or impairment. They may involve modifications to practices or
procedures. There are various types of reasonable accommodations that may be offered. Examples include:
1. If you are unable to use your hands, you may be permitted to take the test orally rather than in writing;
2. If you are hearing-impaired, you may be provided with a sign-language interpreter at an interview or other application
related appointment; or
3. For those unable to travel to a designated USCIS location for an interview, you may be visited at your home or a
hospital.
If you believe that you need USCIS to accommodate your disability and/or impairment, check the "Yes" box and then
check any applicable box in 1.a. - 1.c. that describes the nature of your disability(ies) and/or impairment(s). Also, write
the type(s) of accommodation(s) you are requesting on the line(s) provided. If you are requesting a sign-language
interpreter, be sure to indicate for which language. If you require more space to provide additional information within this
application, please provide the information on a separate sheet of paper, and attach it to your application. (See General
Instructions, “How To Fill Out Form I-90,” item 2.)
NOTE: All domestic USCIS facilities meet the Accessibility Guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act, so you
do not need to contact USCIS to request an accommodation for physical access to a domestic USCIS office. However, on
Part 4 of the form, you can indicate whether you use a wheelchair. This will allow USCIS to better prepare for your visit
and have a wheelchair accessible interview room available for you once you enter the facility.
USCIS considers requests for accommodations on a case-by-case basis and will use its best efforts to reasonably
accommodate all applicants with disabilities or impairments. Qualified individuals will not be excluded from the
participation in, or be denied the benefits of, USCIS' programs solely on the basis of their disability(ies) or impairment(s).
Requesting and/or receiving an accommodation will not affect your eligibility for a USCIS benefit.

Part 5.

Signature of Applicant

Every application must contain the original signature of the applicant. A photocopy of a signed application or a
typewritten name in place of a signature is not acceptable. If you are under 14 years of age, your parent or guardian may
sign the application on your behalf.
The applicant's name must be signed in this box. If you are under 14 years of age, your parent or legal guardian may sign
your name, then write "By" and sign his or her own name.
Include a valid daytime phone number where you may be reached.

Part 6.

be payable in U.S. currency; and
2. Make the check or money order payable to U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Notice to Those Making Payment by Check. If you send us a check, it will be converted into an electronic funds

account for the amount of the check.
The debit from your account will usually take 24 hours and will be shown on your regular account statement. You will not
receive your original check back. We will destroy your original check, but we will keep a copy of it. If the EFT cannot be
processed for technical reasons, you authorize USCIS to process the copy in place of your original check. If the EFT
cannot be completed because of insufficient funds, USCIS may try to make the transfer up to two times.
