Citizenship Fees Skyrocket Under Trump
Description
Trump’s administration is pushing sweeping changes to U.S. citizenship fees—raising them from $760 to $1,330 for paper applications and similar hikes for online filings—while eliminating fee waivers for low-income applicants, except for service members. USCIS argues the increase is needed to cover rising processing costs and stricter scrutiny, shifting focus from affordability to immigration enforcement. Though still in proposal form, the rule faces a 60-day public comment period before official review, amid broader efforts to tighten immigration screening, including revived neighborhood checks.
