Direct Mail Program Extended for States Western, Honolulu, Etc.
Prior to May 1998

The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS or Service) has, effective since March 23, 1998, expanded its Direct Mail Program to include the Honolulu, Phoenix, and San Diego District Offices and the Agana, Calexico, Las Vegas, Reno, and Tucson Sub-offices on the current list of direct mail sites for filing Form N-400, Application for Naturalization.

Applicants residing within these districts and sub-offices will mail their Form N-400 directly to the designated INS service center for processing. This expansion is intended to improve INS service to the public by reducing processing times for Form N-400, limiting in-person visits to local offices, and improving the quality of case status information provided to the public.

Effective March 23, 1998 applicants for naturalization residing within the jurisdiction of the Honolulu, Phoenix, and San Diego District Offices and the Agana, Calexico, Las Vegas, Reno, and Tucson Sub-offices must mail the Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, directly to the California Service Center at the following address: USINS California Service Center, Attention: N-400 Unit, P.O. Box 10400, Laguna Niguel, California 92607-0400.


Transition

Until May 23, 1998, for 60 days following the effective date, the local INS offices will forward in a timely fashion to the California Service Center any Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, which has been inadvertently filed with the respective District or Sub-office.
