# USCIS Case Status MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > USCIS Case Status (Immigration) MCP lets you track immigration applications directly through your AI agent. Just provide a 13-character receipt number to get real-time updates on case status, processing history, and milestones. It cuts out the need to manually log into the USCIS portal for every update, making it easier to manage multiple filings at once. ## Overview - **Category:** industry-titans - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_5wtIF7c8BdhwEGKZf5UfBwSgnnlD9P82QhUlFb5D/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** immigration-status, case-tracking, application-history, government-services, real-time-updates ## Description Managing immigration paperwork is usually a mess of open tabs and constant refreshing. This Connector changes that by letting your AI agent do the heavy lifting of checking status updates for you. Instead of hunting for the latest info on a government portal, ask your agent for the current standing of a specific application or a full history of what's happened so far. It processes 13-character receipt numbers, whether they start with EAC, LIN, or MSC, and pulls the data directly from the official developer portal. This makes it much easier for anyone managing a high volume of cases because it centralizes the info in your existing chat interface. It's a key reason the Vinkius catalog works well for high-stakes professional workflows, as it turns a tedious manual search into a quick natural language query. Check a single application or ask your agent to loop through a list of different numbers to provide a summary of an entire portfolio. This removes the need to copy and paste numbers into a browser over and over again. It gives you a clear view of where every application sits in the pipeline, from initial receipt to final approval. ## Tools ### get_case_status Fetches the current standing of a USCIS application.
