Common confusion points
What is the difference between a 'Fee Exemption' and being eligible for a 'Fee Waiver'?
A Fee Exemption means the form costs $0 to file; a Fee Waiver allows a filer who would normally owe fees to pay less or nothing.
→ Check if the fee listed next to the form is $0.
When filing Form G-28, why are there two versions (G-28 and G-28I)?
The G-28 is for General filing, while the G-28I is specifically for matters outside the geographical confines of the United States.
→ Confirm which jurisdiction your case falls under.
If I file Form I-102 online, how do I know if I qualify for the $560 fee?
The fee amount depends on the specific selection made in Part 2: selecting Item Number 1.e (not issued I-94 at port-of-entry) or Item Number 1.f (correcting/replacing an electronic I-94).
→ Verify which specific box in Part 2 you checked.
Can I request a fee waiver for the standard filing fee if my form is listed as $0?
No; the schedule indicates exemptions, but eligibility for benefit requests still requires review. For example, even if a form shows $0, you must confirm eligibility for the associated benefit request.
→ Review the specific instructions for that form to see if it lists conditions requiring Form I-912.
What happens when filing Form G-325A and selecting 'Yes' in Part 3?
The fee is subject to whether the application is under Labor Investigation-Based (LIB DA) or Spouse, Widower(er), Parent, Son, or Daughter of an Active Duty Service member.
→ Check if your petition qualifies for one of those specific categories.
If I file Form I-129CW as a Small Employer, what does the fee structure look like?
The base fee is $1,015 plus additional fees; the specific breakdown includes: Asylum Program Fee ($600), Educational Funding Fee ($210 per beneficiary/year), and Fraud Prevention and Detection Fee ($300).
→ Ensure all three components are accounted for in your payment.
