NEW ONLINE USCIS TOOL WILL HELP AVOID INCORRECT FILING FEES

USCIS has rolled out a helpful tool to aid confusion regarding filing fees. The new “Online Fee Calculator” will be useful for those who are looking to calculate their correct filing fees when submitting a petition to any USCIS lockbox facility.
Applications can be rejected due to incorrect filing fee amounts, and this will help reduce the number of applications rejected for this reason. USCIS has stated that, among the more than 11 million applications filed last year, incorrect filing fees are among the leading cause of rejection.
In order to use the Online Fee Calculator, filers will select the form or forms which they intend to file and answer a series of questions in regards to that form. When the questions have been answered, the fee calculator will let the user know the correct fees. This new tool can be used on both mobile and desktop devises, and will not collect any user data. It can be accessed at https://www.uscis.gov/feecalculator.
USCIS accepts filing fee payments in the form of check or money order, and a credit card payment can be accepted if filed with a Form G-1450.
