G-325A
Biographic Information (for Deferred Action)
Form G-325A, Biographic Information (for Deferred Action), is the form USCIS uses for requests for initial and subsequent deferred action. The instructions describe deferred action as a discretionary determination to defer removal as an act of prosecutorial discretion, for a specified period, unless DHS chooses to terminate it.
The form is not used for deferred action related to DACA, Violence Against Women Act self-petitions, or A-3, G-5, T and U nonimmigrant status. The USCIS page names military service members and their family members and non-military deferred action as the cases it covers.
Part 3 of the form also lets a requestor ask for an Employment Authorization Document upon a grant of deferred action. The instructions call this an alternative to filing a separate Form I-765 under the (c)(14) category.
Name, current physical and mailing or safe address, date of birth, A-Number and USCIS online account number, other names, prior addresses for the last five years, most recent entry, Form I-94, and details about your mother, father and current spouse.
Whether the request is initial or subsequent, the filing type from A (Labor Investigation-Based) to H (Other), and a supporting statement on why the request should be considered.
A Yes or No on whether you request an EAD upon a grant of deferred action, then current annual income, annual expenses and total assets to show economic necessity. The form says that information is not required for the SIJ DA filing type.
Whether you want the Social Security Administration to issue an original or replacement card, your SSN if any, and consent for USCIS to share the information with SSA.
The requestor's contact details, certification and signature, the interpreter and preparer sections, and Part 8 for additional information.
The USCIS page lists edition 01/20/25 and says the edition date and page numbers need to be visible at the bottom of every page of a printed form, all from the same edition, or the form may be rejected.
Type or print in black ink. The instructions say to write N/A where a question does not apply and None where a numeric answer is zero.
More than one filing type may be selected. The instructions say to give a brief statement and supporting evidence for each one selected.
Answer Yes in Part 3 only if you also want an EAD. For a Social Security card, the instructions say to answer Yes to Part 4 Items 1 and 3 and give both parents' names in Part 1.
Put your name and A-Number at the top of each extra sheet, note the page, part and item number, and sign and date each sheet.
USCIS says it rejects any unsigned form, and a stamped or typewritten name is not accepted. This page lets you fill the form online free, then print it for signature.
You get the real form, filled in a browser tab, with nothing standing between you and the finished PDF.
The USCIS page says to file by mail based on where you live, at the Chicago, Dallas or Phoenix Lockbox. Check the Form G-325A page for the current address before mailing.
The fee is on the USCIS Fee Schedule page (Form G-1055), which can change. The USCIS page says paper filings are paid by card with Form G-1450 or by bank account with Form G-1650, unless Form G-1651 shows an exemption.
The USCIS page says a Yes in Part 3 needs the Form I-765 fee, and not a separate Form I-765. A request based on SIJ deferred action is fee exempt. Form I-912 can be used to ask for a fee waiver.
The USCIS page lists evidence for each type, such as a Statement of Interest from a labor agency, DD Form 4 and proof of family relationship for military cases, or a government agency letter. Most types include proof of identity and nationality.
The instructions say USCIS may ask for an interview or biometrics at any time, and that a request may not be granted if the appointment is missed.
The USCIS page says the related employment authorization request will also be denied and refunds will not be issued.
