USCIS Fee Calculator

Filing an immigration application means knowing the full price before you mail anything, whether you're pursuing a green card, citizenship, a work permit, or one of the many visa categories. USCIS revised its fee schedule for 2026, and the figures here reflect those updates so you neither overpay nor come up short, the latter of which can stall your case for weeks or months.

Behind the estimate sits a database of current USCIS forms and their fees. For each form you select, the tool shows the base filing fee and, where the form allows it, premium processing at $2,965. Biometrics no longer appears as a line item: the USCIS final fee rule that took effect on April 1, 2024 folded biometric services into each form's base fee and eliminated the separate $85 charge. A reduced $30 biometrics fee survives only for TPS (Form I-821) and EOIR filings, neither of which is offered here.

Filers who last paid USCIS before April 2024 often still budget a separate $85 biometrics fee and send the wrong amount, which is grounds for rejection just as surely as underpaying the form fee. It is also worth checking whether your situation qualifies for a fee waiver or reduced fee, since those require their own forms and are never applied for you automatically. Finally, confirm you're submitting the current edition of each form, as an outdated version is enough to get a package returned.
