Special Information for Applicants Residing in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI)
If the applicant is lawfully present in the CNMI, the applicant may be eligible to apply for a grant of status with this application without having to seek consular processing. The request for the initial grant of status must be accompanied by an additional biometric services fee as described in section 8 CFR 103.7(b)(1) and evidence of the applicant’s lawful presence. The applicant will be required to submit biometric information before the application for a grant of status is approved. Although this is a request for an initial grant of status rather than a change of nonimmigrant status, in Part 2., the applicant should select Item Number 3.a., and identify the nonimmigrant status he or she is initially requesting in Item Number 3.c.
