I-407 Record of Abandonment of Lawful Permanent Resident Status – Fillable PDF

The Form I-407 is the official USCIS document used to voluntarily abandon lawful permanent resident (LPR) status in the United States. Whether you are moving abroad, changing visa categories, or need proof of abandonment for tax reasons, completing this form correctly is essential.

What Is Form I-407 and When Is It Required?

I-407, Record of Abandonment of Lawful Permanent Resident Status, notifies USCIS that you are giving up your green‑card rights. You should file it when:

• You are leaving the U.S. permanently and will not maintain LPR status.
• You need official proof of abandonment for an A or G visa, U.S. consular services, or tax filings.
• You are a minor (under 14) or an incapacitated adult; a parent, guardian, or legal representative must sign.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Submitting I-407

• Missing Signature: An unsigned form is automatically rejected.
• Incorrect Edition Date: Use the most recent edition (09/25/24) – visible at the bottom of each page.
• Wrong Mailing Address: Send to the USCIS Lee’s Summit, MO facility unless you have specific instructions from a field office.
• Including Unnecessary Documents: Only submit the I-407 form; do not attach driver’s licenses, SS cards, or other IDs.
• Failing to Provide Guardian Proof: For minors or incapacitated adults, attach proof of relationship or legal guardianship.

Where to Mail or Submit Your Completed Form

Standard filing is by mail to:

USCIS
Attn: I-407
7 Product Way
Lee’s Summit, MO 64002
USA

In rare cases, you may submit the form in person to a USCIS international field office, a U.S. embassy/consulate, or a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer at a port of entry.

After filing, USCIS will notify the Internal Revenue Service of your abandonment date, which may affect your tax obligations.
