Citizenship and Immigration Services (previously Immigration and Naturalization Services, INS) continues to rollout its immigration information by visit system called InfoPass, with three brand-new USCIS districts included recently. Atlanta, Boston and Houston are the newest additions, making the system now available in almost all significant metropolitan areas with big immigrant populations. These areas consist of Los Angeles, New York and Miami.
Together with the Case Status Online service (enables users to check the status of some pending applications, e.g. permit applications) which was provided previously this year on the Internet, and the electronic filing of the 12 most popular immigration types, (accounts for more than 50% of all immigration benefit applications filed each year) InfoPass is the latest effort meant to reduce long lines and speed up the processing backlog of services provided by the USCIS.
InfoPass enables anyone who is living in a serviced USCIS district and seeking immigration benefits to set up an appointment with migration officers via the Internet. The easy to utilize online system permits users to go over complex migration concerns with USCIS officials, while preventing the long lines. People already located in the USA and are seeking a skilled worker visa are best to consult an immigration attorney like this one:

The safe Internet website offers service in 12 languages and is organized in a series of triggers, asking the user to enter their name, zip code, address, phone number and a wanted consultation date. The notice will provide the address of the USCIS office and any info relating to needed identification and/or extra documentation, such as a green card or work license, to be provided at the appointment.
