DHS Publishes New Edition of the Form G-1055, Fee Schedule
On September 19, 2016, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the new of edition of the Form G-1055, Fee Schedule. The Form G-1055 lists the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) fee for all forms published by the DHS. The Form G-1055 also includes associated biometric fees where applicable. The Form G-1055 is an important resource for people who need to know the most up-to-date USCIS forms information. You may find the new edition here [PDF version of Form G-1055].
Information About Fee Waivers
Certain applicants may apply for a fee waiver for generally applicable fees associated with a DHS-published form. We have articles explaining which forms are eligible for fee waivers [see article] and the rules for applying for a fee waiver (usually with the Form I-912, Request for Fee Waiver) [see article]. We also discuss the fee requirements for forms specific to proceedings in immigration court and before the Board of Immigration Appeals [see article], as well as the rules for applying for fee waivers in these situations [see article].
Conclusion
The Form G-1055, Fee Schedule, is useful for finding the current fee information for DHS-published forms. Persons who need to file a fee with the DHS should always check the form instructions for the most current information. Persons filing forms with the USCIS should consult with an immigration attorney for any questions or complicated filings associated with certain applications.
