How FillWise handles Form G-28
FillWise has a ready map of this form's fields. It recognizes the PDF by its field names and stops treating it as 101 separate boxes: the AI only pulls the facts out of your notes, each tied to a person on the form, and the map places them:
- dates in the form's own format;
- Yes/No pairs and other checkbox groups, ticked from the answer in your notes rather than box by box;
- the daytime phone taken from the mobile number when that is the only phone;
- the client's role, petitioner or applicant, set from the form you name.
The PDF is encrypted with an empty password; FillWise opens it like any other.
It also carries Adobe XFA data; FillWise fills the regular fields and drops the XFA part, so the result opens in any reader.

What to check before you file
- The edition. Agencies replace their forms with new editions. This page describes the 09/17/18 edition; check that your copy is still the current one on uscis.gov/g-28.
- Part 3 names the client and the form the appearance is for: check it matches the filing it goes with.
- Names and numbers character by character; signatures, fees and supporting documents stay with you.
Filling Form G-28 for many clients
Bulk fill in your FillWise account takes Form G-28 and a CSV or Excel sheet with one client per row. It fills the first one and stops so you can check the result, then fills the rest and hands back one zip. Each copy costs 1 fill, the same as filling it on its own. For one client's whole case, add Form G-28 with Form I-130 and Form I-485 and paste the client's notes once: every form is filled from them. How it works step by step: bulk PDF form filling guide.
