Form G-1450 – Authorization for Credit Card Transactions (Fillable PDF)

The Form G-1450 is the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) authorization you need when you want to pay filing fees by credit, debit, or prepaid card through the mail. This fillable PDF lets you enter all required information electronically, print a clean copy, and attach it to your application package.

What Is Form G-1450?

Form G-1450, "Authorization for Credit Card Transactions," captures the cardholder’s name, billing address, card number, expiration date, and a signature authorizing USCIS to charge the card for the requested filing fee. The latest edition (02/06/26) adds a CVV field for extra security, although the CVV is not required for USCIS processing.

How to Complete the Fillable PDF Online

Instead of downloading the file and opening a PDF editor, simply click the "Fill out this form" button on this page. The Formize PDF Filler app will load, and you can:

• Enter your information directly into the fields.
• Use the built‑in validation to avoid formatting errors.
• Save a draft and return later if you need more time.
• Print a PDF that is ready for mailing.

Common Mistakes & Tips for a Successful Submission

• Do not use a foreign‑issued credit card. USCIS only accepts cards issued by U.S. banks.
• Make sure the card number and expiration date are entered without spaces or dashes.
• Even though the CVV field is optional, fill it in if you have it – it helps other DHS components verify the card.
• Signature must be legible; use the mouse or touch screen to draw your signature, then print.
• Check that the edition date (02/06/26) appears at the bottom of every page before mailing.

Where to Send Your Completed Form

Place the completed Form G-1450 on top of your application package and mail it to the USCIS Lockbox address indicated in the “Where to File” section of the specific form you are submitting. Do not send the form to a regional office or a USCIS field office.
