USCIS Immigrant Fee
Effective February 1, 2013
About the Fee
Foreign nationals who seek permanent residence in the United States and
receive an immigrant visa will need to pay a USCIS Immigrant Fee beginning
February 1, 2013.
The new fee of $165 was established in USCIS’s final rule adjusting fees
for immigration applications and petitions announced on Sept. 24, 2010.
USCIS has worked closely with the Department of State (DOS) to implement the
new fee which allows USCIS to recover the cost of processing that is
performed in the United States after immigrant visa holders receive their
visa packages from DOS and are admitted to the United States.
Note: Applicants will now have two separate fees to pay. They are still
required to pay the DOS visa application processing fee, and will now also
have to pay the USCIS Immigrant Fee.
What the Fee Covers
The immigrant fee will cover the cost of USCIS staff time to handle, file
and maintain the immigrant visa package, and the cost of producing and
delivering the permanent resident card.
Who Needs to Pay the Fee
Any individual who on or after February 1, 2013 receives an immigrant visa
package from a United States consulate or embassy abroad (including Canada
and Mexico) will pay the USCIS Immigrant Fee.
Intercountry Adoptions
The fee does not apply to those entering the United States under
intercountry adoptions programs.
Children admitted into the United States under the Orphan or Hague Adoptions
Process are currently exempt from paying the USCIS Immigrant Fee; however,
USCIS will consider the cost of processing immigrant visas issued by the DOS
for the Orphan and Hague process the next time there is an adjustment to
the fee schedule.
When and How to Pay the Fee
Applicants must pay this fee online through the USCIS website. Applicants
should submit payments after they receive their visa package from DOS and
before they depart for the United States.
Applicants can electronically submit the fee by answering the questions on
the USCIS website by providing their:
checking account information, or
debit or credit card information.
All check payments must be drawn on a U.S. bank.
If the applicant is unable to make this payment, another person can make
this payment on the applicant’s behalf. | t*********1 发帖数: 2852 | | s******4 发帖数: 1322 | 3 I believe this is for CP not 485
