Form I-800 – Petition to Classify a Convention Adoptee

The Form I-800 (Petition to Classify Convention Adoptee as an Immediate Relative) is used by U.S. citizen prospective adoptive parents to finalize the immigration process for a child adopted from a Hague Convention country. This page provides the official fillable PDF, step‑by‑step instructions, and tips to ensure a smooth filing.

What is Form I-800?

Form I-800 is filed after you have an approved Form I-800A (Application for Determination of Suitability to Adopt a Child from a Convention Country). It requests the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to recognize the child as an immediate relative, allowing the child to obtain an immigrant visa.

Eligibility & Required Documents

  • U.S. citizen petitioner (adoptive parent) – must be at least 21 years old.
  • Approved Form I-800A approval notice.
  • Proof of the child’s habitually residing in a Convention country.
  • Article 16 report, adoption agency statements, and post‑placement plans (if applicable).
  • Form I-864 (Affidavit of Support) or I-864EZ.
  • Any required medical examinations, translations, and certifications.

How to Complete the Fillable Form Online

Instead of downloading the PDF and editing it with a separate editor, simply click the "Fill out this form" button on this page. The Formize PDF Filler app will load the fillable version instantly. Follow the on‑screen prompts, save your progress, and download the completed PDF ready for submission.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using pages from different edition dates – all pages must match the edition date shown at the bottom of the form.
  • Leaving required fields blank (e.g., Part 2 – Information About You).
  • Submitting original documents unless specifically requested.
  • Failing to attach English translations for foreign‑language documents.
  • Paying the filing fee with a personal check – USCIS now requires electronic payment methods.

Where to File & Pay the Fee

Mail the completed Form I-800 and supporting evidence to the USCIS Adoption Lockbox (Dallas, TX). Payment can be made with a credit/debit card using Form G‑1450, or via ACH with Form G‑1650. Check the latest fee schedule on the USCIS website before filing.
