Does anybody know about this?? Looks like they may actually LOWER the fees for I-129F ($455 to $340) while raising most other fees....

That page hasn't been updated in awhile but the comment period just ended July 26th, so could happen soon?

USCIS

02-25-11 Sent I-130

03-01-11 NOA1 Priority Date

03-09-11 NOA1 hard copy

06-16-11 NOA2 Email/text (107 Days! Yaay!)

Detour

06-21-11 Informed USCIS of their error: they wrongly thought we were adjusting status so they held the petition and didn't forward it to NVC

06-30-11 Expedited service request granted to forward petition to NVC

08-02-11 Congressional Inquiry to get USCIS to finally forward petition to NVC

08-05-11 USCIS admits our file was routed to National Records Center and will expedite its return and forward to NVC

08-23-11 Congressman's office informs me that file is FINALLY on its way to NVC! Woohoo!!

Draw them in on a K1 with lower fees then hit them with ludacrously high costs for AOS, ROC and Naturalization. USA, USA, USA! I am so glad I got my k1 and AOS in before the last hike in price, the problem is it makes everyone rsuh to file before the increase which overloads USCIS and delays us. So the extra revenue from the increase just dissapears in clearing the backlog.

Pfft, Liverpool. GO MANCHESTER UNITED! :devil: Heehee...

Ok :ot2: ...

I think it's a small step to immigration reform. Allow more people to afford to come over, but make sure only the worthy can stay (which explains the raise in fees for almost everything else). I don't know for sure, it's just a theory.
