Following the implementation of new immigration-related fees under the H.R. 1 Reconciliation Bill (H.R. 1), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) published a new edition of Form G-1055, Fee Schedule on July 22 that updates filing and additional fees for various immigration-related forms.

Key Points:

  • The G-1055 fee schedule should be used to verify fee information for immigration forms. The complete version of the 57-page fee schedule can be viewed here.
  • Forms with updated filing fees include the series of forms from the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR) and applications for Temporary Protected Status and Suspension of Deportation.
  • Forms updated with additional fees include but are not limited to:
    • Form I-131, Application for Travel Documents, Parole Documents, and Arrival/Departure Records
    • Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status
    • Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization
  • In a recent news release, USCIS announced these fees will apply to certain immigration benefit requests postmarked on or after July 22, 2025 and that forms submitted without the correct fees after August 21, 2025, will be rejected.

Additional Information: According to USCIS, “certain forms require additional fees along with any filing fee. Additional fees are not eligible for fee waivers and must be paid by separate payment concurrent with any filing fee.”

USCIS also notes that “certain filers may qualify for a fee waiver for certain forms. To determine your eligibility for a fee waiver, please review Form I-912, Request for Fee Waiver.”
