Citizenship Fees Skyrocket Under DHS

from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

U.S. citizenship fees are set to skyrocket—with a 75% jump from $760 to $1,330—part of DHS’s push to cover rising processing costs, including enhanced vetting and social media checks. Reconsideration fees also climb sharply, and most fee waivers are being scrapped, though military personnel remain exempt. Immigration lawyers warn this isn’t about efficiency—it’s about erecting financial and bureaucratic barriers. USCIS, funded solely by applicant fees, will pass these costs directly to applicants, adding another layer to an already complex path to citizenship.
