U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ (USCIS) decade-long effort to digitize its nearly 100 immigration forms has seen little progress, racking up about $1 billion in project costs and operating on a tenuous timeline for completion, reported The Washington Post in today’s edition. Right now, the only digital immigration form available through USCIS is an application to renew or replace a green card. Yet many immigrants who have used the application waited as long as a year or never received their new card at all.

“Immigration lawyers say the current system leads to lost applications, months-long delays and errors that cause further delays. Immigrants miss deadlines for benefits, meaning they lose everything from jobs and mortgages to travel opportunities,” The Post [reports](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-decade-into-a-project-to-digitize-us-immigration-forms-just-1-is-online/2015/11/08/f63360fc-830e-11e5-a7ca-6ab6ec20f839_story.html).

The lack of efficiency and transparency in the immigration process is a perpetual frustration for many foreign nationals whose lives depend on their application outcomes. That’s what drives VISANOW’s mission — transforming the process of immigration by making it simple and accessible.

We combine the best of people and technology to offer transparent, online visa application services. Our questionnaire-based application autofills government forms; our document uploading system makes it easy to attach information; and we offer unlimited access to our affiliated immigration attorneys. Everything is stored securely in the cloud.

We care about offering a straightforward path to everything from family-based visas and work visas to green cards and U.S. citizenship. A full list of the petitions we provide services for is available [here](https://app.visanow.com/get-started/products).

The right technology can mean the difference between confusion and confidence. To see how, [contact us.](http://www.visanow.com/contact-us-ita/) We’d love to help.
