(NewsNation) — Fees associated with becoming an American citizen are set to rise on April 1, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has announced.
The cost of filing an Application for Naturalization form, or N-400, will go up from $640 — or $725 if biometric work is needed — to $760. Meanwhile, the overall price for filing the forms needed for legal permanent residency, also known as the “green card” packet, will rise from $1,760 to $3,005, per USA Today.
“USCIS conducted a comprehensive biennial fee review and determined that current fees do not recover the full cost of providing adjudication and naturalization services,” the Department of Homeland Security announcement read. “DHS is adjusting the fee schedule to fully recover costs and maintain adequate service.”
