Last week, USCIS proposed for the first time a standardized fee waiver form that would provide relief for financially disadvantaged people seeking immigration services from the federal agency. USCIS posted a notice in the Federal Register and are currently seeking public comments on proposed Form I-912, the Request for Individual Fee Waiver.
This proposed fee waiver form is based on information gathered in meetings and collaborations with various stakeholders. The form will provide a standardized way for applicants and petitioners to submit fee waiver requests to USCIS by clearly delineating criteria for the waiver to applicants; this will provide consistency to the process of requesting a fee waiver.
