USCIS Updates Fee Schedule for Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker (Form I-129)
May 07, 2024
- U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has updated its fee schedule for Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker—H-1B and H-1B1 Petitions, to reflect the additional required fees for online filings.
- USCIS made the update in response to query by the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) noting that “the information [previously] listed was unclear and could have been construed as an indication that the additional fees, such as the ACWIA fee, the Fraud Detection Fee and Asylum Program fee, were not required if a Form I-129 was filed online.”
- The updated fee schedule can be found at USCIS Fee Schedule (I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker—H-1B and H-1B1 Petitions).
