USCIS Status Checker Gem

This gem makes it easy to check multiple application statuses from USCIS website, without visiting the USCIS website.

Important

This is not the official way to check the status of a USCIS application and it's not endorsed by USCIS either. It's just a scraper of the USCIS website and it may break at any time if the website is updated. If it should happen, feel free to report me or to fix the problem.

New on version 0.3.0

Now it checks if the Application is in the last status (step). If it's in the last status, the Application is complete.

Live Example

Take a look at the 'Multiple USCIS Status Checker' website that uses this gem:

http://uscisstatus.herokuapp.com

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'uscis_status'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install uscis_status

Usage

require 'uscis_status'

# Array with multiple application numbers
app_numbers = %w(MSC0123456789 MSC9876543210 MSC0213547698)
# Or single application number
app_numbers = "MSC0123456789"

statuses = USCISStatus.check(app_numbers)
statuses.each do |s|
  puts "The status of your application number #{s[:number]} is: #{s[:status]}."
end

#The method 'check' returns an array with the following hash:
{
               :number => "MSC0123456789",
                 :type => "Form I485, Application To Register Permanent Residence Or To Adjust Status",
               :status => "Acceptance",
          :description => "On March 20, 2013, your fingerprint fee was accepted and we have mailed...",
  :general_description => "During the acceptance step USCIS reviews newly received applications and...",
             :complete => "false"
}
