Beginning April 1, 2024, separate filing fees are required for each application.
- A $50 discount for filing an application online if online filing is available.
- Expansion of a reduced fee for naturalization applications for individuals who can demonstrate their household income is less than or equal to 400% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.
- Employers filing either a Form I-129 or I-140 will now have to pay a new Asylum Program Fee.
- When a case is filed with premium processing, USCIS will now have 15 business days instead of 15 calendar days to act on the case.
