CHART1 OF THE IMMIGRATION-RELATED FEE CHANGES2 BROUGHT BY  \nH.R.1 THE SO-CALLED ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL ACT3  \nCongress passed and President Trump signed a law, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”(OBBBA), on July 4, 2025. The Act creates anew fee regime for matters before United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), and for certain people apprehended by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) between ports of entry. The information in this chart is current as of its publication date, given the ambiguities in the text of the OBBBA and the changes in agency interpretation that we have already seen, practitioners must ensure for themselves that there are no updates to the fees by visiting the webpages cited herein and conducting other independent research before filing applications.  \n1 Publication of the National Immigration Project, 2025 .

In addition, some of the statutory text states that the fee amount can be charged “in addition to any other fee authorized by law.” At first, EOIR issued guidance interpreting the OBBBA listed fee amounts as being the complete EOIR-related fees.
