Reviving this 4 month old thread: any news on the final fee increases? I've been monitoring VJ and news sources but no confirmed official increase so far.

On boundless. com it says we should know by summer. 

 

Just saw the increase on naturalization is minimal but for AOS and ROC it is insane! 

 

They should have lower fees for those who must adjust and remove conditions if they went through a K1 -I propose it here as the official comments period is over 😜 -.

I've read that summer is the earliest anticipated date for publication of the final rule. (Hopefully AOS will come down a bit in the final rule, but save those extra bananas just in case....)

( AOS question )  I'm sure those who do know that, there will be an increase in fees. I spoke with someone today and they indicated that each document will have its own price come April 1st 2024

Have anyone heard of this because i called USCIS today twice, and they said that there will be just increases. my point is that. ( just being transparent) (I only would have to pay for my fiancee

and daughter's AOS and Bio for the mom.. not the child bio.. and pay for the child's AOS ) now USCIS also said that i won't have to pay for any EAD or Advance travel because I'm doing all 3 together

The price increases will happen for applications postmarked on or after April 1.

From another site (not sure if I can link here): "Form I-485 will go up 18% for the standalone application (to $1,440). Two formerly free forms within the adjustment of status process (Employment Authorization Document and Advance Parole Travel Document), will now cost an additional $650 and $630, respectively."

A fee increase is one thing, it's expected. But to go from a free EAD and AP to have to pay over $600 each, that's huge. A massive change.

I do not think it used to be free, well included in the adjustment.
