The United States Immigration Service (USCIS) is increasing processing fees. These increases come into effect from Monday April 1st, 2024 :

This change implies a sometimes considerable increase in the costs of certain processes, which will have an impact on those who find themselves in the middle of immigration procedures.

According to USCIS, the tariff review was carried out after a year of exhaustive analysis, in response to the need to ensure the financial viability of the agency. "The current tariff regime is not sufficient to cover operating costs, including expanding humanitarian programs and meeting government salary requirements [...] Unlike many other agencies, our operations are funded almost entirely by royalty income. About 96% of our funding comes from filing fees and only 4% comes from Congressional appropriations." Higher rates are needed to ensure operating costs are covered and to prevent delays from piling up in the future. »

Naturalization to citizenship: from 640 USD to 740 USD +11%.
