New AOS fees

[Laurel0708 21]

I did look over the instruction page, and I know that new fees were enforced at the beginning of October this year. However, I cannot find a link anywhere that gives me an exact number as to what the AOS costs. Does anyone know?

Thank you!

There are no new fees. It's still $1070

[Laurel0708 21]

Alright. I thought I saw something about a month ago that it was more expensive. Thank you and the EAD is "free" with that correct?

They wanted to but they didn't get it through. As I believe VJ member rcipps knew more about this in a different topic about this! Yes, EAD/AP are free when filed with the AOS, add them to the package and cover letter. Good luck!

Still $1,070, per USCIS fee schedule (9/19/16), and yes there's no charge for EAD (I-765)/AP (I-131) if filed with I-485:

I-485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status

* A biometrics services fee is required from applicants 14 - 78 years

of age.

$985 $85*

If you filed Form I-485 and paid the Form I-485 application fee on

or after July 30, 2007, no additional fee is required to also file Form

I-765.

No Fee N/A

If you filed Form I-485 on or after July 30, 2007, and you paid the

required Form I-485 application fee, then no fee is required to file for

an Advance Parole Document or a Refugee Travel Document.

No Fee N/A

Here is the proposed USCIS fee increment, not yet implemented.

Even for the recommended fee increment, the EAD is still free if files in conjunction with a pending or concurrently filed I-485.

I heard my name called. NO CHANGE IN FEES! It was a proposal and public comment period but no approval yet so no fee changes have been put in place.

I remembered you explaining it several weeks ago in a topic, that's why!
