We have revised Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, to provide a third gender option, “X,” defined as “Another Gender Identity.” We are also updating guidance in the USCIS Policy Manual accordingly to account for this form revision and other forthcoming form revisions that will add a third gender option; see the Policy Alert (PDF, 344.77 KB).
The 04/01/24 edition of Form N-400 will be the first USCIS form to include the X gender option. Applicants filing this edition of Form N-400 on or after April 1, 2024, will have X immediately available as a gender option on their form.
Applicants who have a pending Form N-400 using the edition in effect before April 1, 2024, may request to update their gender on or after April 1, 2024, as well. For all other forms, individuals must wait until USCIS revises those forms to include the X gender option.
Consult the chart below to determine if the X gender option is available to you.

Form N-400 is the only USCIS form that offers the X gender option at this time. Therefore, until we complete additional form revisions that add the X gender option, naturalization certificates are the only USCIS-issued secure identity documents that can reflect the gender X. The X gender option is not yet available on the Form N-565.
If you have other benefit requests pending with USCIS and would like to choose X as your gender, or if you would like to change your existing USCIS-issued secure identity documents to reflect X as your gender, you must wait until we update the relevant forms before you may do so. Once USCIS updates additional forms to offer the X gender option, benefit requestors may follow the instructions on the Updating or Correcting Your Documents webpage to select the X gender option.
Supporting Documentation Not Needed
You do not need to provide supporting documentation to select X as your gender initially or to change your gender selection for Form N-400. The gender you select does not need to match the gender listed on your other immigration documents or on supporting identity documents, such as your birth certificate, passport, or state identification.
Social Security Card
Note that if you select the X gender option on the new Form N-400, you may need to visit a Social Security office for a Social Security card or to update your citizenship status. The Social Security Administration is still developing systems to accept the X gender option.
Background
Historically, USCIS forms and associated documents have only offered two gender options: “Male (M)” and “Female (F).” This has created significant barriers for requestors who do not identify with either of those options. Limiting benefit requestors to two gender options also creates administrative challenges for USCIS when we receive birth certificates or other official government-issued documents with a gender other than M or F. Adding a third gender option helps ensure that secure identity documents and biographical data are accurate and helps both external stakeholders and individuals requesting immigration benefits. It is also consistent with federal and state agencies that have adopted a third gender option, such as the U.S. Department of State’s expanded passport services to offer gender X in their application.
In March 2023, USCIS updated the Policy Manual to allow for the self-selection of gender on USCIS forms. (PDF, 333.48 KB) This policy update allows benefit requestors to select their gender on all USCIS forms without providing supporting documentation (except for Form N-565, which requires a formal form revision to implement this policy). Benefit requestors may also change a prior selection without the need to provide specific supporting documentation, or to match prior documentation provided. This revision is consistent with efforts to break down barriers in the immigration system and reduce undue burdens in accessing immigration benefits, while still maintaining identity verification and fraud prevention procedures.
It’s not gender, it’s sex, and there are only two.
I assume X stands for mentally ill.
We are being governed by traitors and lunatics.
So, we’re going to let someone in who admits to a mental problem?
Sure, do this and then disqualify the person because of self-admitted mental illness.
Why would the Houthis, NorKs, ChiComs, Mullahs and Ruzzians do this to us?
You left out Satanists and psychopaths.
No, the goal is to bring as many here as possible. You’re missing it.
There are only 2 genders - Male end Female. Your gender was dtermined when your were born - if you had a Penis you are Male - of you had a Viagina you are Female.
Any alteration doesn’t change your gender.
It was determined when we were conceived, chromosomally.
There are only 2 sexes - male and female.
There are 3 genders -- masculine, feminine and neuter. In the English language, gender exists only for pronouns and words adopted from foreign languages.
Words have meaning. Don't confuse sex and gender the way so many have done. That's how the Left has dominated this issue.
It will just make it easier to round up the freaks when the time comes.
Not simply “mentally ill”, but a total abnegation of the purpose of bilateral sexual identity. The only other alternative to sex as a means of producing the next generation of humanity, is to make all forms of denying reproduction as an option to be exercised by consenting adults the standard, by creating a majority of essentially neuter individuals.
This effectively reduces the overall numbers of human beings on the planet. Trouble is, not all ethnic groups look upon this as a universal good, as eventually the future numbers fall so low as to make continued existence of humanity a very real probability, or even a certainty.
Once humanity is eliminated, then the gentle chimpanzees may assert their dominance. (Is it absolutely necessary to include the “/sarcasm” tag EVERY time?)
Heck. Why stop at three?
“Democrats are outraged!”
Mistakes happen.
Absolutely!
But gender reassignment surgery only offers two genders.
Only three?
Bigots.
