USCIS has announced the introduction of online filing for certain employment-based Form I-485 (Adjustment of Status) applications. This change allows applicants to submit their forms electronically, streamlining the process while maintaining the requirement to submit the medical exam (Form I-693) at the time of filing.
Key Details:
- Online filing fees: $1,390 for applicants aged 14 and older, $900 for children under 14 filing with a parent.
- Paper filing fees: $1,440 for applicants aged 14 and older, $950 for children under 14.
- Applicants must upload the medical exam when filing online and keep the sealed original for their records.
- USCIS has indicated that online filing may expand to additional application types in the future.
This update is expected to benefit many applicants by providing a more cost-effective and efficient way to file for adjustment of status. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
