Filing fees for Petitions to go up
« on: December 24, 2006, 07:24:13 AM »
USCIS is planning to have "significant" fee increases imposed by the end of the first quarter of 2007. There will be advance notice of a month or so. Rumors have it that the Naturalization fees will go way up. Stay tuned. . . . .

I love this government!!! Please let me pay more and more and more for less and less and less. Actually, if we payed per level of ineptitude and stupidity the smallest fee would be around $5000.00. Might as well just smuggle them across the Mexican border and wait for amnesty to come through.  :burnedup: :seething: :puke:

"significant" the last time around was between 25 and 40 percent. I would expect about the same. But- who knows?!?!?!?
