One document sets every USCIS fee: Form G-1055, the official fee schedule. Every figure below was extracted programmatically from edition 05/29/26 and covers the family, citizenship, K-1, and work-authorization filings this site serves. Fees change when USCIS publishes a new edition — the verification link in each section is not boilerplate, it is the maintenance model. General information, not advice about any individual case.

## Family and marriage filings

I-130 (family petition): $675 paper, $625 online. I-485 (green card application): $1,440 — paper only for family cases, with $950 for a child under 14 filing concurrently with a parent. I-864 (Affidavit of Support): $0. I-751 (remove conditions): $750 paper, $700 online. USCIS fees change periodically — before filing, verify current amounts on the official USCIS fee schedule (Form G-1055) at uscis.gov/g-1055.

## Citizenship and K-1

N-400 (naturalization): $760 paper, $710 online — with a $380 reduced fee (documented income, paper only) and $0 for military-provision applicants. I-129F (fiancé(e) petition): $675, paper only — it cannot be filed online.

## Work permits and travel

I-765 (work permit): $520 paper, $470 online — or $260 with a pending I-485 filed with fee on or after April 1, 2024. I-131 (advance parole): $630 paper, $580 online. DACA renewal package: I-821D $85 plus I-765 $520/$470.

## The rules that catch people

Online filing is typically $50 cheaper where an online option exists — but family I-485s and the I-129F have no online option, and fee-waiver or reduced-fee filings must go on paper. There is no separate biometric fee for these forms. Fees are generally not refunded on rejection or denial. And Form I-912 requests a full fee waiver in eligible categories. Every figure on this page is only as current as G-1055 edition 05/29/26 — the schedule at uscis.gov/g-1055 is the living source.

## Frequently asked questions

Form G-1055, the official fee schedule at uscis.gov/g-1055 — the single source. This page's figures are from edition 05/29/26.

### Is online filing cheaper?

Typically $50 cheaper where an online option exists — but family I-485s and the I-129F are paper-only, and waiver/reduced-fee filings must be on paper.

### Are there separate biometric fees?

Not for these forms — the 2024 fee rule folded biometrics into the filing fees.

Generally not — neither on rejection nor denial, which makes pre-filing verification the cheapest step in any case.
