FOIA Request and Status
This API allows consumers to create a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) or Privacy Act (PA) request, for Alien File material, about or on behalf of the subject of record by sending a JSON payload with the required data. Once the payload is validated and successfully ingested, a Request Number will be returned as evidence that the request was successfully submitted. When USCIS has created the case, a Control Number will be returned to track the status of the FOIA/PA Alien File Request.
