Hello Fellow July filers!

Quick question, pls. Is it alright to use the N-400 Form without the 2D Barcode to apply for Naturalization? I printed the 21-pages form but there is no 2d barcode but I saw in one uscis video that one of the revisions of N-400 is the presence of 2D Barcode at the bottom of each page. But there is none! I tried to use Mac and Windows laptops and both don't show any barcode when i clicked the form (exp. 09/30/2015)

Can somebody please tell me how you did yours? Im submitting mine in 2 weeks. Please help! Thanks a lot in advance!

Try to use another computer or printer. Using Form N400 without barcode may cause your application delay or they may reject it.

Good luck

You need to use the latest version of Internet Explorer to fill out the form if you want the barcode to appear. Goodluck Edited by S_R

Thanks so much for replying!

My windows laptop is soooo slow and outdated that I would rather go to FedEx and rent their computer to print the forms. I just hope that i can finally see the 2D barcode when i use their computer.

I have a Mac but I couldn't find a reliable source to install the latest version of IE. So I guess everybody in this group used the one with 2D barcode, right?

If you have other suggestions, I'm all ears. :-) Thanks a lot again!

Now I am worried. I have sent mine without a barcode. I was not aware about this nor did I see anything on there when I downloaded the form from their website. :/ Well, there is nothing I can do right now, other than wait and praying they will accept it.

Good luck to you. :-)

Now I am worried. I have sent mine without a barcode. I was not aware about this nor did I see anything on there when I downloaded the form from their website. :/ Well, there is nothing I can do right now, other than wait and praying they will accept it.

Good luck to you. :-)

Oh NO!!! I didn't mean to create confusion or scare anybody. I'm so sorry...

Folks... let's take a step back and think about this for a minute... the barcode updates as you type in your information into the form. So its purpose is to store your information so that when your application is received, it can be scanned and the NOA can be sent out as quickly as possible. However, the N400 can also be filled out by hand, which means that the barcode at the bottom of the page will contain no personal information at all in some cases. So if handwritten applications are acceptable, then there's no way that the barcode is required. A missing barcode will probably just slow down processing by a few days because the eligibility information will have to be checked manually before an NOA is sent out. My only concerns would be:

-if the barcode didn't print out, then perhaps other parts of the application weren't printed either. Best thing to do would be to take a full copy of the application to the interview just in case anything was left off.

-was the right version used? The older N400 had no barcode.

Tips for Filing Form N-400, Application for Naturalization

On February 4, 2014, we published a revised Form N-400, Application for Naturalization. When you fill out your Form N-400, you must complete every section and answer every question as completely as you can. Also, please note that, as of May 5, 2014, we will only accept the Form N-400 that has a revision date of 9/13/13. The revision date is printed on the lower left corner of the form.

To ensure you submit a complete and correct N-400, please follow these filing tips.

General Instructions

  • Read the Form N-400 Instructions carefully.
  • Use the revised version of Form N-400 which is posted on our website at www.uscis.gov/n-400. If you can, fill out your Form N-400 on a computer. When you use a computer to complete this form, the data you type is stored in the barcode at the bottom of each page. This improves accuracy and efficiency of processing.
  • We will accept N-400 forms that do not have the barcode on the bottom.
  • Do not damage or write on the 2D barcode located at the bottom of each page.
  • If you can’t use a computer to fill out this form, that’s okay. We still accept hand-written applications. Use a black pen when you fill out the form by hand.
