The official USCIS PDF, served live: we fetch it from uscis.gov each time you open it and keep no copy, so it cannot get stuck on a stale edition. The file you download is identical to the USCIS one; the only thing we add is the edition in the filename. Signature lines are signed by hand: USCIS does not accept a typed name or a pasted signature.
We request it from uscis.gov the moment you open it and we keep no copy. That is why we cannot hand you a stale edition: what you see is what USCIS is publishing right now.
