How FillWise handles Form I-864
FillWise has a ready map of this form's fields. It recognizes the PDF by its field names and stops treating it as 219 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 mailing address copied from the home address when your notes give only one;
- the daytime phone taken from the mobile number when that is the only phone.
The map was made for the 10/17/24 edition. The current edition (08/24/26) still matches it on 211 of its 219 fields, which is enough for FillWise to use it. Fields that are new in this edition are not in the map and stay empty, so read the whole form before filing.
USCIS publishes this PDF encrypted with an empty password, so it opens in a reader without one. FillWise opens it in the browser like any other PDF.
The file also carries Adobe XFA data next to its regular form fields. FillWise fills the regular fields and leaves the XFA part out, so the result opens in Acrobat, Preview or Chrome alike.
What to check before you file
- The edition. Agencies replace their forms with new editions. This page describes the 08/24/26 edition; check that your copy is still the current one on uscis.gov/i-864.
- Names and numbers, character by character. Names exactly as in the ID document, and every ID, tax or case number.
- Income and household size figures must match the tax returns you attach.
- Signatures. FillWise signs nothing; signing and dating the form is yours.
- Everything outside the form. Fees, where to send it and supporting documents are not part of the fill.
Cost
Form I-864 has 12 pages, so filling it costs 3 fills: FillWise charges a PDF fill by the pages it fills, one fill per started 5 pages. The free plan starts with 20 fills and then tops back up to 5 fills a week, no card required. Paid plans are on the pricing page.
Privacy
With the extension, the PDF is opened and filled inside your browser. What goes to our server for AI processing is the list of the form's fields and the data you pasted or attached, and none of it is stored after the fill. The full picture is on our privacy and security page.
