On 23 July 2007, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued a reminder that the agency’s new fee schedule will be in effect on Monday, July 30, 2007. Applications or petitions postmarked or otherwise filed on or after that date must include the new fee. By way of background, USCIS announced the new fee schedule in May. The final fee schedule includes a reduction in fees for some adjustment of status cases, expands fee waiver and exemption eligibility, and allows a one-time free extension of orphan petitions for prospective adoptive parents. Overall, USCIS application and petition fees will increase, on average, by about 66%. Individuals seeking more information about the final fee schedule should contact our office.
