Filing Fee
$285. All immediate family members who file their applications in a single package with USCIS (for example: a married couple with four children) are eligible for the family filing fee of $570.
If you file this form with the immigration court, the fee is $165 for one or more applicants in the same proceeding. However, this fee is not required if USCIS does not grant your application and refer it to the immigration court for further proceedings.
You may be required to pay a biometrics fee of $85 per person. Exceptions apply; see the form instructions for additional details. If you are paying by check, make it payable to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
When you send a payment, you agree to pay for a government service. Filing and biometric service fees are final and non-refundable, regardless of any action we take on your application, petition, or request, or if you withdraw your request.
