What it does

USCIS CASE MONITORING

Receipt numbers tracked from one dashboard

I-129, I-130, I-140, I-485, I-765, I-131 and more, updates before the client calls

RFE RESPONSE DRAFTING

RFE drafting starts as an evidence workbench

Upload an RFE, the countdown starts and an attorney-review response packet is built

PROCESSING TIME TRACKING

Outside-normal cases flagged early

Your cases measured against current USCIS averages, delays flagged before the client asks

H-1B SPECIALTY OCCUPATION

Duty-to-source analysis with O*NET citations

Job duties map to O*NET and regulatory criteria while unsupported or conflicting elements remain open for attorney review

POLICY MONITORING

Policy and status with source context

USCIS policy, Federal Register notices, and AAO decisions organized by case type

FORM GENERATION

Every field sourced and flagged for review

I-129, I-130, I-485, N-400 and more, pre-populated from intake for attorney review

Supported case types

H-1B (new, extension, transfer, amendment) · H-4 · L-1A/L-1B · O-1 · TN · E-1/E-2 · Family-based (I-130/I-485) · K-1 · Employment-based green card · Naturalization (N-400) · DACA renewal · TPS · Asylum (I-589) · Removal defense (EOIR-42A/42B) · VAWA self-petition (I-360)

RESPONSE DRAFTING

Response drafts that never invent a citation

Anything not in the notice is flagged for you, so every citation and fact traces back to the record

FORM PACKAGES

Case-type form packages filled from intake

The right USCIS forms for the case type, pre-populated from client intake and flagged for attorney review

Newest

NEWEST CAPABILITY

I-864 RFE Response Workbench, included with your license

Turn a financial-support RFE into a deadline, itemized USCIS requests, sponsor review flags, client request packet, and attorney-review response draft without inventing facts or citations.

Scope and limits

DocketBuddy does not give legal advice or make filing recommendations. Every RFE framework, form, and specialty-occupation analysis requires your review and signature before use. Your judgment is not automated, it's protected.

Supported matters: employment-based, family-based, asylum, removal defense, VAWA, DACA, TPS, and naturalization.

Proof under the workflow

Every recommendation keeps its proof close

DocketBuddy separates governing authority from matter evidence, shows where each important fact came from, and keeps attorney review between the analysis and anything sent or filed

See what's covered →

Authority posture in view

When a workflow applies a legal rule, its citation, source status, and jurisdiction stay close enough to verify before relying

Matter evidence stays separate

Uploaded documents, client answers, and attorney-entered facts keep distinct labels so the file never invents a single source of truth

Uncertainty stays visible

Missing, stale, or conflicting proof remains a review gate instead of disappearing inside generated work product

Trust layer

Client data stays protected

Immigration client data requires the highest standard of protection. Here's how we handle it.

✓Encrypted in transit and at rest
✓Firm data completely isolated, no cross-firm data access
✓Never used to train AI models
✓Never sold or shared with third parties
