SimpleCitizen was founded in 2015 as a digital immigration platform focused on family-based immigration, green card applications, DACA renewals, and naturalization filings. The platform targets individuals and families navigating the U.S. immigration system without access to or means for traditional full-service immigration attorneys.
The platform uses a guided intake process where applicants answer structured questions, after which the software assembles the appropriate USCIS forms and supporting documents. All applications are reviewed by attorneys in SimpleCitizen's independent network before submission, and the company offers translation services for foreign-language documents required by USCIS as part of the package.
SimpleCitizen includes eligibility screening tools to help applicants determine which immigration benefit they may qualify for before starting an application. The platform also handles printing, assembly, and mailing of completed applications directly to the appropriate USCIS office, removing the logistical burden from applicants unfamiliar with government submission procedures.
SimpleCitizen's focus on family-based immigration categories and its direct-to-consumer model distinguishes it from employer-oriented immigration platforms. Its attorney review layer and satisfaction guarantee — including refunds if an application is denied due to a platform error — position it as a structured alternative to pure self-help immigration tools.
Hands-on review pending.
