Immigration exhibit tabs are lettered or numbered divider tabs that separate the evidence in an immigration filing and the case binders a firm keeps. The rules differ by agency: the immigration court asks for alphabetic tabs starting with “A” on the right side of paper filings, the USCIS appeals office recommends tabs or colored paper between exhibits, and USCIS service centers ask filers to avoid insertable tab dividers (the kind with slide-in label holders), hole punching and binding. Tabzoola’s tabs are printed and die-cut from the sheet itself, not insertable, and ship unpunched and unbound for filings. Lettered A–Z exhibit sets are from $23.86 a set at 25 sets.

Tabzoola is a US supplier of custom exhibit tabs, made to order at the Schaumburg, Illinois plant of its sister company, Anselmo Die & Index, which has die-cut index tabs since 1993. Every tab prints exactly as you type it, lettered, numbered or titled to match your exhibit index, with a free PDF proof before anything prints.

## What each agency says about tabs

Immigration court (EOIR). The Immigration Court Practice Manual, chapter 2.3, says that for cases with a paper record of proceedings, parties should use alphabetic tabs commencing with the letter “A”, affixed to the right side of the pages. For cases with an electronic record of proceedings, the court encourages paper separators, a sheet with “Tab A” printed on it, instead of indexing tabs, because the filing is scanned.

USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO). For evidence submitted with an appeal, motion or certification, the AAO practice manual recommends an index of the evidence, numbered pages, and file tabs or colored paper between exhibits.

USCIS service centers. USCIS’s paper-filing recommendations, written because it scans filings at intake, ask filers not to use insertable tab dividers, binders, hole punching or staples. Insertable dividers carry separate tab holders with slide-in labels; Tabzoola’s tabs are printed and die-cut from the sheet itself, and filing sets ship unpunched and unbound. The guidance does not address printed tabs either way, so follow the current form instructions for each filing.

- Immigration court, paper record: lettered tabs from A, right side
- Immigration court, electronic record: paper separator sheets preferred
- AAO appeals and motions: tabs or colored paper between exhibits
- USCIS service-center filings: avoid insertable (slide-in label) dividers, binders and punching
- Always check the current manual and the form instructions before filing

## Where printed tabs belong in an immigration practice

Paper filings in immigration court, AAO appeal and motion packets, and the attorney and client case binders that follow every matter for years. A firm that files the same case types repeatedly standardizes one lettered or titled set and reorders it for each matter.

Court and appeal sets ship collated and unpunched, lettered in the order your exhibit index lists them. The immigration court’s own manual asks for paper filings pre-punched with two holes along the top, centered and 2¾″ apart, so punch the set with the rest of the filing on a standard two-hole punch; office copies can be 3-hole punched for the ring binders the firm keeps. Paper tabs carry clear or colored Mylar on every tab, so a color can mark each case type or attorney.

## Pricing

At Tabzoola, a lettered A–Z exhibit set, collated and 3-hole punched, is $23.86 a set at 25 sets and $8.22 at 250, setup included. Any other range or wording prices instantly in the designer, with a free PDF proof before anything prints.

## Questions

### Does USCIS want tab dividers in paper filings?

USCIS’s paper-filing recommendations for service centers ask filers to avoid insertable tab dividers (dividers with slide-in label holders), binders, hole punching and staples, because filings are scanned at intake. They do not address printed, die-cut paper tabs like Tabzoola’s, which are part of the sheet and ship unpunched and unbound. The USCIS Administrative Appeals Office recommends file tabs or colored paper between exhibits for appeals and motions. Always follow the current form instructions.

### What tabs does immigration court require?

The Immigration Court Practice Manual (chapter 2.3) says that for a paper record of proceedings, parties should use alphabetic tabs beginning with “A”, affixed to the right side of the pages. For cases with an electronic record, it encourages paper separator sheets printed “Tab A” instead of indexing tabs.

### What are immigration exhibit tabs?

Divider tabs printed to a filing’s own exhibit list, lettered, numbered or fully titled, and collated one set per filing. Tabzoola prints them for immigration court paper filings, AAO appeals and firm case binders.

### How should an RFE response be organized?

Most firms mirror the request: one section per RFE item, in the order the request raises them, with an index up front. Because RFE responses go to USCIS, follow USCIS’s scanning guidance for the packet itself; a tabbed copy works well for the firm’s own file.

### How is this different from your legal exhibit tabs?

Same manufacturing. The legal exhibit page covers trial, deposition and case binders for litigation; this page covers immigration court, appeals and case files, where each agency sets its own rules about tabs.
