Your case
Why welcomeUSA
Our families sought political asylum from communism, crossed oceans for a better life, and filed family petitions of their own. The USA welcomed them. We exist to pay that welcome forward — affordable for every family, and free for people seeking protection.
$0
Not a discount and not a trial.
$0, because people seeking protection deserve access to help.
USCIS filing fees go to the government, never to us.
The technology
The expensive part of the traditional process is repetitive human work: retyping the same facts, cross-checking forms, assembling documents. That is exactly the work software does best.
You answer simple questions once, in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. The same information lands on every form and supporting document — in the right fields, in the required format.
Every field, signature, and document is checked for completeness, and inconsistencies are flagged before your packet is marked ready. Systematic checks catch the small things people overlook. A software check, not a legal review.
Your evidence is sorted, labeled, and numbered into an exhibit index, and the whole packet assembles in filing order: cover letter, forms, table of contents, numbered exhibits.
Drafted from your own record, presenting your petition and citing your evidence by exhibit number — the careful work attorneys bill hours for, done by software.
$3,000–$8,000
What private immigration attorneys typically charge to prepare a family-based green card petition. Our flat technology fees are a fraction of that because software, not billable hours, does the repetitive work — and the savings fund the $0 humanitarian cases. How we compare with a lawyer →
The software’s output is filled forms, a cover letter, and an assembled and checked packet. It does not give legal advice, and no result is guaranteed. Where you want legal advice, an independent licensed attorney can review your packet and file for you.
The people
We are the children and grandchildren of immigrants who sought political asylum and left communism behind, so the next generation could grow up with the freedom and opportunity this country offers.
We are the grandchildren of immigrants who crossed an ocean for a better life.
We are the spouses and parents of immigrants who navigated family petitions of their own.
We know these forms from the family’s side of the table: the cost, the waiting, the worry that one small mistake could undo months.
welcomeUSA is what we built so the next family has it easier — AI doing the careful, tedious work our families once faced alone.
Self-help immigration software. Not a law firm, not affiliated with USCIS. You prepare and file your own petition, with an independent licensed attorney available to review and file for you if you choose.
