From a student visa in 1985 to U.S. citizenship, one form at a time.
Practical training, then an H-1, a green card and citizenship, all without hiring an attorney. Later came applications for family, friends and employees. Along the way, the forms and rules grew more complex and costly, and people kept asking one question: would it be safe to try DIY?
MiVisaGuide.com, built with family support, is the answer to that question: an honest free check first, and help preparing your forms when you are ready.

One clear price when you are ready
$99 per application ($59 for a work permit renewal) to prepare and check your forms. Government filing fees are paid directly to USCIS, separately. The check and both apps are always free.
