Title: Fees for Motion to Reopen or Reconsider 
Abstract: This interim rule clarifies when and how fees must be paid when a motion to reopen or reconsider is filed concurrently with any application for relief under the immigration laws for which a fee is chargeable. This interim rule applies to motions to reopen or reconsider that are filed in all types of immigration proceedings including those over which the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Board of Immigration Appeals have appellate jurisdiction, respectively. ^PThis interim rule is necessary to eliminate questions that have arisen regarding the payment of fees for applications for relief that require their own separate fees when filed concurrently with motions to reopen or reconsider.
