<body>
<p>On July 4, 2025, the President signed into law H.R.1, One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Public Law 119-21(HR- 1). HR-1 establishes specific fees for various immigration-related forms, benefits, statuses, petitions, applications, and requests administered by multiple government agencies. In a Federal Register Notice, 90 FR 34511, USCIS announced certain new fees promulgated by HR-1, when collection of the fees will begin, and how the fees are to be paid. This rulemaking will codify the fees previously announced and implement additional fees required or authorized by HR-1.&nbsp; The rulemaking will also clarify limitations or exceptions that apply to the fees, along with consequences for non-payment of the HR-1 fees.</p>
