What is Form G-325A?

The Biographic Information for Deferred Action, or Form G-325A, is a form provided by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for biographic information collection of non-permanent residence status individuals and non-citizens applying or petitioning to be a legal resident and citizen of the United States.

The USCIS defines ‘deferred action’ as “a discretionary determination to defer a deportation of an individual as an act of prosecutorial discretion.” Basically, deferred action allows non-permanent residents and non-citizens in the United States to legally stay in the country without getting deported or removed by the USCIS. It should be noted, though, that non-permanent residence status individuals and non-citizens are not granted amnesty for any illegal time spent in the United States.

Before, the USCIS required certain individuals to complete and submit Form G-325A with their application or petition to become a legal citizen of the United States, but has since then stopped using that version of Form G-325A. The components of the former Form G-325A have been separated into other document forms for other requirements. Now, the new Form G-325A is used only by certain enlistees and family members of some military personnel, veterans, and enlistees for deferred action requests.

What is the purpose of Form G-325A?

The USCIS will use the information provided on this form to process their application or petition.

The primary purpose for providing the requested information on this application is to collect information to locate an immigration record to determine eligibility for the benefit the applicant/petitioner is requesting.

Who should file and submit for Form G-325A?

Now, the new Form G-325A is used only by certain enlistees and family members of some military personnel, veterans, and enlistees for deferred action requests.

When should you file and submit Form G-325A?

In the event that a certain enlistee or family member of some military personnel, veterans, and enlistees request for deferred action, they should submit their petitions or applications with Form G-325A.

The current version of Form G-325A is valid until 9/30/2022, or September 30, 2022.

Where should you file and submit Form G-325A?

The enlistee or family member requesting for deferred action should complete Form G-325A and include it with the application or petition they are submitting to the USCIS.
