Immigrants Registration Required

Form G-325R - Alien Registration Requirement

Under U.S. immigration law, immigrants are required to register with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

1. Alien Registration Number (A-Number)

This number is assigned to individuals who are in the U.S. for an extended period (such as green card holders or those on long-term visas). Once an immigrant has a specific status, they are given this number, which is used to track their immigration history.

2. Form AR-11 – Alien's Change of Address

Immigrants are required to notify the USCIS of any change in address within 10 days of moving. This form can be filed online or by mail.

3. Registration Requirement (Section 262 of the INA)

Under Section 262, non-citizens, including immigrants and some non-immigrants (such as those on long-term visas), are required to register with the U.S. government. The main purpose of this is to maintain a record of their presence in the U.S. and to assist with immigration enforcement.

News from USCIS

The Alien Registration Requirement is enforced under an executive order titled "Protecting the American People Against Invasion." This order helps the Department of Homeland Security ensure that immigrants comply with their duty to register under Section 262 (INA) (8 U.S.C. 1302). Failure to comply is treated as a civil and criminal enforcement priority. This was previously ordered by President Trump.

Fingerprinting & Registration

The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) requires that, with limited exceptions:

• All aliens 14 years of age or older who were not fingerprinted or registered when applying for a U.S. visa and who remain in the United States for 30 days or longer must apply for registration and fingerprinting.
• Parents and guardians must ensure that their children below the age of 14 are registered.
• Within 30 days of reaching their 14th birthday, a previously registered alien child must apply for re-registration and fingerprinting.
