U. S. FormsReviews 26

US-forms.com is very likely a renamed version of other sites that have come under investigation or have been shut down. They give no mailing address, but their format is suspiciously similar to other sites that play the same game to trick people into paying them money.

Even I was fooled, and I know to NEVER USE ANY SITE OTHER THAN ONE THAT ENDS IN ". GOV".

In this case, I wanted to fill out an citizenship naturalization form, and US-forms said I could fill it out online for $199. Well, that sounded pretty good - so good that I stupidly overlooked the fact that it was a ". Com" site.

What I got for my $199 was an online replica of what might have been the correct form, which I dutifully filled out. At the end, it gave me an un-editable PDF file and some generic instructions for mailing in an application for a work permit.? Well, I did fill out the form online, but a PDF file to print and mail is NOT what I expected. And I couldn't even edit it.

The ONLY good part about US-forms.com is that they guaranty a refund if you aren't satified, and I was NOT satisfiied. They say they processed the refund. With that, I can make certain when I get my credit card statement.

Having made my mistake, I went looking for the proper form again, and this time made sure I was on a USCIS government web site. There, I found very clear instructions for gathering the required supporting documents, and an online form to fill out AND SUBMIT that was very, very easy. Unlike the scam site, the only fees were the actual filing fees.

NEVER RELY ON ANYTHING BUT A US GOVERNMENT SITE ENDING IN ". GOV".

NOTE: I could see from the charge to my credit card that US-Forms operates out of Barcelona, Spain. A foreign address keeps them out of reach of the US legal system.
