Release Date
12/21/2018

As part of the agency’s efforts to streamline requests for case assistance, we are discontinuing the use of USCIS service center e-mail boxes for case-specific questions on Jan. 21, 2019. Instead, USCIS is focusing our resources online via self-help tools at uscis.gov/tools and my.uscis.gov, and through the USCIS Contact Center. These changes are a part of our overall modernization efforts to provide a more efficient and effective user experience

The service center e-mail addresses being discontinued are:

  • California Service Center: csc-ncsc-followup@uscis.dhs.gov
  • Vermont Service Center: vsc.ncscfollowup@uscis.dhs.gov
  • Nebraska Service Center: NSCFollowup.NCSC@uscis.dhs.gov
  • Potomac Service Center: psc.ncscfollowup@uscis.dhs.gov
  • Texas Service Center: tsc.ncscfollowup@uscis.dhs.gov

For assistance with our online tools, see the listings below.
