Lancaster · Central Ohio
Why this Form I-134A page is written for Lancaster
families that often divide time between local life and Columbus-area employers, schools, and religious communities — and Lancaster, with a population near 40,552, reflects that mix in its schools, workplaces, and houses of worship.
Across Central Ohio, immigration filing needs tend to cluster around three life events: a family member arriving, a green card renewing or being replaced, and a permanent resident reaching the naturalization window. Lancaster families work with us to make sure their packet tells one consistent story — the same names, dates, addresses, and relationship facts appear identically across every page.
Lancaster sits in Central Ohio, a mix of agriculture, regional healthcare systems, and commuter access to the Columbus job market. Fairfield County, where Lancaster is located, is a substantial Ohio community with established county-level document and vital records services.
most clients drive in via U.S. Route 23, State Route 161, or the I-270 outerbelt. From Lancaster (ZIP 43130), the trip is roughly 32 miles each way.
Lancaster is about 32 miles from our Morse Rd office — roughly a 42-minute drive. Most clients complete their entire packet in a single visit, so the round trip is rarely repeated. We also serve clients across the rest of Central Ohio, where many of our Lancaster clients have relatives, coworkers, and shared community ties.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Form I-134A and who needs to file it?+
Form I-134A is filed by a U.S.-based supporter who agrees to financially support a beneficiary applying for humanitarian parole — such as programs for Ukrainian nationals (Uniting for Ukraine) or nationals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, or Venezuela (CHNV programs). The supporter must demonstrate they can financially support the parolee during their stay.
What income level is required to be a supporter on Form I-134A?+
USCIS uses the federal poverty guidelines to assess financial ability. Generally, you should be able to show income at or above 100% of the federal poverty level for your household size plus the beneficiary. Asal Multi Services can review your financial documents and help you present your support evidence correctly.
How long does I-134A processing take for parole programs?+
USCIS processing times change and depend on the form, office or service center, and case type. Use the current USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice for the most relevant estimate.
Can I support multiple beneficiaries with separate I-134A forms?+
Yes. You must file a separate Form I-134A for each beneficiary you wish to support, even if they are members of the same family. Each form requires its own online submission through your myUSCIS account. Asal Multi Services can assist you with preparing and submitting multiple I-134A forms.

Do Lancaster residents need to attend USCIS interviews in Columbus?+
