USCIS offices
USCIS runs four kinds of office and they do not overlap. A field office is where interviews happen: green card, naturalization, and the in-person appointments the Contact Center books when the website cannot help. An application support center takes fingerprints and photographs; every biometrics notice sends you to one, and nothing else happens there. An asylum office interviews affirmative asylum applicants and covers a fixed set of states and counties. A service center adjudicates cases that arrive by post or online and admits no visitors at all. Your notice names the office; check it against the address here before you travel, and never go to an office without an appointment.

Which asylum office covers me
Asylum jurisdiction follows where you live, not where you filed. The asylum offices page lists each office with the states and counties it serves, and the satellite sites where it holds interviews. Processing speed differs sharply between offices; see processing times.

Compiled 2026-09-06 from USCIS's own office finder and office locator. USCIS stopped publishing pages for individual field offices in 2026; the address comes from its ZIP-code lookup table and there are no published hours, phone numbers or services beyond the general rule that everything is by appointment. Hours for application support centers and asylum offices are what USCIS published on the day this was compiled. Offices close for weather and move without much notice; the office closings page is the authority on any given morning.
