Fillable I-130 Petition for Alien Relative – Complete Online

The I-130, Petition for Alien Relative is the first step for U.S. citizens and permanent residents who want to bring a family member to the United States. Historically you would download a static PDF, print it, hand‑write answers, and mail it to USCIS. With Formize’s Fillable I-130 PDF, you can complete the entire petition directly in your browser—no PDF editor required.

What Is the I-130 Form?

The I-130 establishes a qualifying relationship between the petitioner (U.S. citizen or green‑card holder) and the beneficiary (spouse, child, parent, or sibling). USCIS uses this form to verify eligibility before processing a visa or adjustment of status application.

Missing signatures – The petitioner and, when required, the interpreter must sign.
Wrong dates – Use the MM/DD/YYYY format and double‑check birth dates.
Unclear photocopies – If you attach supporting documents, ensure they are legible.
