USCIS Issues Final Rule to Adjust Immigration and Naturalization Fees
February 1, 2024
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has published a final rule regarding certain immigration and naturalization benefit request fees. Within the final rule is a chart comparing the current fees to fees established in this final rule. Notably, every fee within the final rule is the same or lower than in the previously proposed rule. Additionally, for most individual filers, the final rule limits how much newly established fees may increase.
The final rule will be effective on April 1st, 2024. Importantly, any benefit request that is postmarked on or after April 1, 2024, must be accompanied by the fees established by this final rule. The official USCIS announcement can be found here.
