FOIA a client's A-File without retyping a thing — or risking the mistakes that get requests closed.
You cannot advise safely on what you cannot see, and USCIS now takes FOIA requests only through its own portal. Lexfill builds the request from the record you already hold: Form G-639 filled and ready for signature, and a submission sheet with every value in the order the portal asks for it. It even finds the parents' names USCIS demands but the client's current form never asked — reading them from an earlier filing rather than making someone hunt. You paste, upload the signed consent page, and file.
- Catches what actually closes requests— the office address entered as the client's, a blank parent row, a birthdate that reads day-first — before you submit, not months later
- Tells you what to leave out: no Form G-28, no cover letter, no unrequested ID copies — three habits that slow a request down
- Keeps the record afterwards: the control number, the 20-business-day clock, and a nudge when USCIS runs late
