USCIS — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

Parent: U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Domains in this note: uscis.gov.

What they regulate

USCIS (DHS) administers lawful immigration benefits, petitions, and naturalization. Visa and immigration consultancies are not the same as a USCIS adjudication. BrokerMafia visa/immigration vertical pages are directories, not endorsements of petition outcomes. Indexed ≠ endorsed.

Always prefer the live .gov site over a third-party mirror. Index ≠ endorsement.

How to verify

  1. USCIS home — Immigration benefits and forms — not a state business or insurance licence register.
  2. USCIS policy / forms context — Prefer live uscis.gov; immigration attorneys and accredited reps follow separate rules.

Questions this page answers

Does USCIS license immigration brokers?

No. USCIS adjudicates immigration benefits. Representation rules (attorneys, accredited representatives) are separate from a BrokerMafia directory row.

USCIS vs State Department vs DOL?

USCIS handles many benefits/petitions; State issues visas abroad; DOL may certify certain employment-based labor conditions. Match the process to the right agency.

Is a BrokerMafia agency page an endorsement?

No. Index ≠ endorsement. BrokerMafia is not a government agency and does not issue licenses.
