Government fees
What USCIS charges, as of September 2026
These fees go to USCIS, not to us. They come from the USCIS fee schedule (Form G-1055, edition 09/09/26). Online filing is often $50 less.
| Form | What it is for | USCIS fee |
|---|---|---|
| I-129 (O-1) | O-1A or O-1B petition | $1,055. $530 for small employers and nonprofits. |
| I-129 (H-1B) | H-1B petition | $780 paper, $730 online. $460 for small employers and nonprofits. Other H-1B fees apply (see below). |
| I-129 (L-1) | L-1 petition | $1,385. $695 for small employers and nonprofits. Plus $500 fraud fee on most first petitions. |
| I-129 (E or TN) | E-1, E-2 or TN petition | $1,015 paper, $965 online. $510 for small employers and nonprofits. |
| I-140 | Employment green card petition (EB-1, EB-2, EB-3) | $715 paper, $665 online |
| Asylum Program Fee | Added to I-129 and I-140 petitions | $600. $300 for employers with 25 or fewer full-time equivalent employees, and for self-petitioners. $0 for nonprofits. |
| I-485 | Green card application from inside the US | $1,440 paper, $1,390 online. $950 paper, $900 online for a child under 14 filing with a parent. |
| I-765 | Work permit | $520 paper, $470 online. $260 if you have a pending I-485 filed with a fee on or after April 1, 2024. |
| I-131 | Advance parole (travel) with a pending I-485 | $630 paper, $580 online. Reentry permit: $630. A separate parole fee set by law ($1,020, or $1,050 for requests postmarked on or after October 16, 2026) can be charged at the border when you return, unless an exception applies. The fee schedule lists green card applicants returning from a short trip as one exception. Your attorney checks this before you travel. |
| I-130 | Petition for a relative | $675 paper, $625 online |
| I-129F | Fiancé(e) petition (K-1) | $675 |
| I-907 | Premium processing | $2,965 for I-140 and most I-129 petitions (including O-1, H-1B, L-1, E and TN). $1,780 for H-2B and R. |
Small employer means 25 or fewer full-time equivalent employees. Fees change, so always check the USCIS fee schedule before you file.
Good to know
Fees and timelines people ask about
-
Premium processing timeframes
USCIS acts within 15 business days for most I-129 petitions and for EB-1A, EB-1B, EB-2 (without NIW) and EB-3 I-140s. For NIW and EB-1C, it is 45 business days. The action may be an approval, a denial, an RFE or a NOID.
-
No premium processing for I-485 or I-130
Other than premium cases, times vary. Check USCIS processing times.
-
Extra H-1B fees
Many H-1B petitions also need a $500 fraud fee (for a first petition or a new employer) and, unless exempt, an ACWIA fee of $750 or $1,500 based on employer size. Some large H-1B employers owe $4,000 more.
-
The $100,000 H-1B payment
The fee schedule still lists a $100,000 payment for some new H-1B petitions, from a 2025 proclamation. A federal court vacated the USCIS guidance for it in June 2026, and DHS said it will comply. This may change, so your attorney checks it before filing.
-
Green card waits
EB-1 and EB-2 green cards have yearly per-country limits. Depending on where you were born, you may wait for a visa number after your I-140 is approved.
Refund-backed terms: only when an attorney approves them
Some cases may get refund-backed terms. This happens only if the reviewing attorney approves it after assessing your case. You cannot request refund-backed terms or buy them.
For companies

FAQ
Pricing questions
No. The evaluation is free. Upload your resume. No account and no card. It is information, not a legal opinion. A partner-firm attorney confirms eligibility before anything is filed.
No. USCIS fees are paid separately, and they go to USCIS. We list current fees on this page so you can plan.
So you know the cost before you start. Your exact legal fee is quoted before you sign, and it does not grow with every email or call.
No. Frank covers O-1A, O-1B, EB-1A, EB-1B and EB-2 NIW only. For other visas, attorneys at the partner firm handle your filing without Frank.
No. Refund-backed terms cannot be requested or bought. They are offered only if the reviewing attorney approves after assessing your case.
No one can. Only USCIS decides. What you get is two attorneys on every petition and a clear plan.
