The `uscis` sensor component allows you get updates on your USCIS case using your case/receipt number. The sensor gets the case information from [USCIS Website]( https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do)
## Example for `configuration.yaml` :
```yaml
sensor:
- platform: uscis
case_id: YOUR_CASE_NUMBER
name: OPTIONAL_NAME
```
{% configuration %}
friendly_name:
description: Name of the sensor in Home Assistant.
required: false
default: USCIS
type: string
case_id:
description: Case/receipt number used to get the case details from USCIS web client.
required: true
type: string
{% endconfiguration %}
All the data will be fetch from [USCIS](https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/mycasestatus.do).
