안녕하세요. J. Kwon Law입니다.
이미 언론매체 보도나 인터넷 정보등을 통하여 대부분 알고 계실 내용이지만, USCIS는 12월 23일부터 인상된 접수비를 받게 됩니다.
변호사를 통하여 접수를 하시는 분들은 별 문제 없으실 것으로 생각이 되지만, 혹시라도 직접 접수를 하시거나 Fee 인상에 대해서 확인하지 않으셔서 불이익을 받으시는 일이 없으시기를 바라는 마음으로 칼럼에 정리를 해 드립니다.
2016년 12월 23일부터 USCIS는 대부분의 application/petition들의 filing fee를 인상하였기 때문에 12월 23일, 그리고 그 이후에 접수하시는 혹은 메일로 보내시는 경우는 인상된 금액으로 보내셔야 합니다. (“Applications or petitions mailed, postmarked, or otherwise filed on or after December 23, 2016 must include the new fee”.)
12월 23일 이후에 반드시 접수를 해야 하는 서류라면 인상된 금액을 반드시 보내셔야 Reject 당하시는 것을 피하실 수 있으며, 12월 23일 이전에 접수가 가능하신 서류라면 (예를 들어 시민권 신청이나 영주권 갱신 등 비교적 간단한 서류들을 포함하여) 가능한 한 12월 23일 이전에 접수하셔서 비용을 절감하실 수 있기를 바랍니다.
다음은 New fees에 관한 설명입니다 (괄호안의 금액은 변경 이전 금액입니다).
