New G-845 and G-845 Supplement Forms Required for Verification of Immigration Documents with Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

The G-845 and G-845 Supplement Forms are used to confirm the immigration status of an individual applying for federal, state or local public benefits, including eligibility for benefits under Titles II, XVI, and XVIII. Typically, the G-845 and G-845 Supplement Forms are submitted together to prove an individual’s legal immigration status in the United States. As of October 1, 2015, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will accept only G-845 and G-845 Supplement Forms that are dated “5/20/2015,” with the exception of those documents annotated “Third Step Verification Request” or “Do Not Reject-Enumeration” at the top of the form.
