Instructions for Request for the  
Return of Original Documents  
USCIS  
Form G-884  
OMB No. 1615-0100  
Expires 11/30/2026  
Department of Homeland Security  
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services  
What Is the Purpose of Form G-884?  
Use Form G-884, Request for the Return of Original Documents, to request the return of original documents submitted to  
establish eligibility for an immigration or citizenship benefit.  
NOTE: If you filed a form that requested original documents, we will automatically return those originals to you. You do  
not need to file this request.  
You need to provide us with:  
1. A completed and signed Form G-884; and  
2. Supporting documentation.  
See the Submitting Your Form G-884 section of these Instructions.  
When Should I Use Form G-884?  
You should use Form G-884 if you submitted original documents that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)  
did not request with a petition, application, or request, and you are now seeking to have those documents returned to you.  
NOTE: Refer to the instructions of the form or forms you submitted to determine whether non-requested originals are  
available for return or are destroyed after scanning.  
Providing the information requested on Form G-884 and submitting the required supporting documents will assist USCIS  
to locate and return the documents requested.  
General Instructions  
NOTE: You only need to submit one Form G-884 if you are requesting multiple documents contained in a single USCIS  
file. However, if the requested documentation is in more than one USCIS file, you must submit a separate request for  
each file. (For example, if you wish to obtain your mother’s birth certificate and your parent’s marriage certificate, both of  
which are in the USCIS file that pertains to her, submit one Form G-884 with your mother’s information.)  
USCIS provides forms free of charge through the USCIS website. In order to view, print, or fill out our forms, you should  
use the latest version of Adobe Reader, which you can download for free at http://get.adobe.com/reader/. If you do not  
have Internet access, you may call the USCIS Contact Center at 1-800-375-5283 and ask that we mail a form to you. For  
TTY (deaf or hard of hearing) call: 1-800-767-1833.  
Signature. Each request must be properly signed and filed. For all signatures on this request, USCIS will not accept a  
stamped or typewritten name in place of a signature. If you are under 14 years of age, your parent or legal guardian may  
sign the request on your behalf. A legal guardian may also sign for a mentally incompetent person.  
Validity of Signatures. USCIS will consider a photocopied, faxed, or scanned copy of the original, handwritten signature  
valid for filing purposes. The photocopy, fax, or scan must be of the original document containing the handwritten, ink  
signature.

Page 1 of  
Evidence. At the time of filing, you must submit all evidence and supporting documents listed in the Specific  
Instructions section of these Instructions.  
Copies. You should submit legible photocopies of any documents you are submitting in support of this request.  
NOTE: If you submit original documents when not required or requested by USCIS, your original documents may be  
immediately destroyed after we receive them.  
Translations. If you submit a document with information in a foreign language, you must also submit a full English  
translation. The translator must sign a certification that the English language translation is complete and accurate, and that  
he or she is competent to translate from the foreign language into English. The certification must include the translator’s  
signature and should contain the translator’s printed name, the signature date, and the translator’s contact information.
