EB-2 / EB-3, I-140, I-485, the Indian backlog, and where you are in the queue.
I need to know what benefits my family can get

Find your green card stage and understand EAD and Advance Parole timing.
My petition went to NVC

I want to track my case
Follow case status, processing delays, and how many applicants are ahead of you.
I'm getting divorced
What a divorce does to H-4 and its EAD, H-1B, a conditional or 10-year green card, a pending I-485, citizenship and the I-864 — and whether a US decree is valid in India.
I'm deciding whether to hire a lawyer
Typical attorney fee ranges for H-1B, green card, and F-1/OPT cases — who usually pays, flat fee vs hourly, and how lawyer fees differ from USCIS filing fees.

USCIS Hub: case status, receipt numbers & forms
For everything about USCIS itself — what each case status means, receipt number prefixes, the forms you'll file, and how to read processing times — head to the dedicated USCIS sub-hub.
Open the USCIS Hub →Common questions
Where should I start with US immigration as an Indian?
Start with your current situation. If you're on H1B, begin with the H1B guide. If you're waiting on a green card, start with the green card process and your priority date. If you just received a USCIS letter, use the notice decoder. Each path above links to the right tool or guide.
What is the difference between this hub and the USCIS hub?
This immigration hub organizes everything by your situation — H1B, green card, job change, travel — and points to the right tool. The USCIS hub at /uscis goes deeper on USCIS itself: case status messages, receipt numbers, forms, and processing times.
Are these immigration tools free?
Yes. Every tool linked here is free and runs in your browser. We don't ask for personal case details — the tools work from the form type, status, or dates you choose. NRItoUSA is not USCIS and does not provide legal advice.
