NACARA 203: How to Apply with the USCIS
How do I apply for NACARA 203 relief with the USCIS?
A separate Form I-881, Application for Suspension of Deportation or Special Rule Cancellation or Removal under section 203 of NACARA, must be completed and submitted for each person applying for NACARA suspension of deportation or special rule cancellation of removal.
Each applicant must send the following documents to the appropriate USCIS Service Center:
- An original completed Form I-881
- One copy of the completed Form I-881
- Four adit-style photographs
- Payment of the appropriate fee
The fees to apply with the USCIS for NACARA 203 relief are described on the Forms Entry page for each form you will file, and in the Fingerprinting page.
- The application fee for an individual or for a family (if all applications are submitted together in a single packet);
- Each applicant 14 years of age or older must also submit a fingerprinting fee
- Applicants who wish to apply for employment authorization must submit a fee, along with the Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization. The fee should be submitted in a separate check or money order from the fee submitted with the NACARA application.
For information regarding fee waivers, see Fees and Fee Waiver Information on the Forms and Fees page.
If you are eligible to apply with the USCIS, you should mail your application to the designated Service Center, based on where you live.

When I submit my application for NACARA 203 relief, should I submit documentation to help prove that I am eligible for suspension of deportation or special rule cancellation of removal?
Yes. You are encouraged to include supporting documents to show you have maintained continuous physical presence in the United States for the previous seven years, that you have had good moral character during those seven years, and that your removal would result in extreme hardship to you or to your spouse, child or parent who is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident. If you are eligible for the presumption of extreme hardship you are not required to submit documents supporting your claim to extreme hardship with your initial NACARA application. However, you must answer all the questions, including an explanation of your answers where requested, related to hardship on the NACARA application. You should also submit all tax returns you have filed for the last seven years. This will expedite the interview and decision process. You may also be asked to provide additional documentation at your interview.
If you are eligible to apply for NACARA relief as a qualified family member of someone described in paragraph A, B, C or D of "Who is eligible to apply for relief under section 203 of NACARA?" you should submit proof of your relationship to that individual.
