USCIS Fees Going Up Soon!

November 12, 2016 By Veronika 2 Comments

Just wanted to let you know that USCIS will increase their fees, effective December 23, 2016.

Fee for I-140 (Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker – first step of NIW application) will go from $580 to $700.

I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status – second step) fee raises from $985 to $1,140.

This significant change could cost you hundreds of bucks, especially if you apply with dependants (your family members). So hurry up and submit your petition before December 23, 2016!

Check the official information source here.

    Hi, so what’s the estimate cost for the whole process of applying for I-485 including physical, biometrics, etc?

      Hi Ron,

      here are the details regarding the costs

      https://www.eb2niw.com/our-eb2-niw-case-approved-2013/

      It is our case from 2013 so it doesn’t reflect the increased cost for I-485.
