United States immigration paperwork gets AI boost, promises petitions in under 30 minutes

Preparing paperwork for United States immigration petitions could become significantly faster with the launch of a new artificial intelligence-powered platform that promises to reduce petition preparation time to under 30 minutes. Texas-based legal technology company EAZYPETITION LLC on Friday announced the full public availability of eazyPetition, following a successful beta phase.

The platform automates document processing and information extraction, allowing each stakeholder involved in a USCIS petition to complete their portion of the workflow in less than 30 minutes, according to the company.

US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) petitions typically require applicants to repeatedly enter information from multiple documents, including passports, visas, I-94 records, previous petitions, educational credentials and employment records. The company said the repetitive process often increases the risk of errors that can trigger Requests for Evidence (RFEs), processing delays and additional legal costs.

"As students, IT professional and family members of naturalized US Citizens navigate complex and repeated petition preparation for renewal of their USCIS petitions for many-many years to maintain their legal status and work authorization, eazyPetition makes it very seamless by offering one solution to store their all underlying documents and create new petition or use previous one to prepare new petition under 30 mins," said Amit Gupta, founder of EAZYPETITION LLC.

The platform uses artificial intelligence to extract information from immigration documents and supporting evidence. Users can review and verify the extracted data before generating print-ready USCIS PDF petitions through a guided workflow.

According to the company, the platform was used by IT professionals in the United States during its beta phase. It currently supports offline USCIS petition preparation, allowing completed petitions to be printed, signed and submitted through existing USCIS filing processes.

Stephen D. Marino, Chair of the Board of Directors at EAZYSTAR SYSTEMS Inc., said, "The transition from a successful beta program to full availability marks an important milestone for eazyPetition. As demand for intelligent legal technology continues to grow, platforms that combine artificial intelligence with reliable workflow automation will play an increasingly important role in improving efficiency and consistency across USCIS petition preparation. We believe eazyPetition is well positioned to help individuals, employers, and legal professionals navigate complex USCIS processes with greater confidence."

The company said the platform is built on a proprietary framework called Evidence Process Markup Language (EPML), which is designed to process supporting documents, automate information extraction and simplify the preparation of complex USCIS petitions.

EAZYPETITION also said it has created a library of more than 200 YouTube tutorials covering petition preparation and filing workflows. The platform is being developed by an engineering team in India focused on artificial intelligence, document intelligence, workflow automation and legal technology.
