USCIS New Fee Schedule

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced a new fee schedule for immigration benefit applications and petitions. The final schedule is effective on July 30, 2007.

Even with the changes, the new schedule will ensure that USCIS will have sufficient funding to fully recover its costs of doing business and also enable USCIS to meet national security and public safety concerns, prevent and detect fraud, and invest in comprehensive transformation efforts – all leading to a more efficient and effective immigration system.
