USCIS Immigration Fees and Related Procedures Required by H.R.1 Reconciliation Bill

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issues this interim final rule (IFR) to codify certain immigration fees and other provisions required by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R.1). This IFR amends U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) regulations to codify: the asylum and annual asylum fees, including the consequences of nonpayment of these fees; the new Form I–94 fee requirement; the validity period for certain types of employment authorization; and the retention of the Form I–589 filing fee for every application.
