Hello, Future Citizens!
We’re back with your weekly scoop of USCIS updates and how they might impact your journey to becoming a U.S. citizen. This week’s updates are all about making the process smoother and more efficient for you. Let’s dive in! 🌊
1. Premium Processing Fee Adjustments 🏦
USCIS has updated the premium processing fees for various forms including I-907. The fees have risen slightly to reflect inflation rates, making sure USCIS can continue providing top-notch services. Note that: if USCIS receives a Form I-907 postmarked on or after Feb. 26, 2024, with the incorrect filing fee, they will reject the Form I-907 and return the filing fee. Remember, the correct fee is crucial; otherwise, your form might be returned! Check out the new fees for your specific form to stay on track. Seet he Adjustment to Premium Processing New Fees:
2. Edition Updates Galore 📄
Attention to detail alert! USCIS announced that only the latest editions of certain forms will be accepted starting April 26, 2024. This includes the newly updated Form I-907 among others. Using the correct form edition ensures your application won’t hit any snags. See below:
3. Filing Location Shake-up 📫
USCIS is optimizing by changing the filing locations for some forms. This might sound like a small change, but it’s all part of a larger plan to digitize and speed up the process.

4. H-1B Registration Revolution 💻
The H-1B process just got a digital makeover! With new myUSCIS organizational accounts, preparing H-1B registrations and petitions has never been easier. Plus, USCIS is introducing online filing for certain H-1B petitions in March, making the process faster and more accessible.
5. Service Center Updates 🚧
Big news for H-1B and H-1B1 petitioners: USCIS service centers will no longer accept paper-filed Form I-129 petitions after April 1, 2024. This shift to USCIS lockbox facilities (or online filing for some cases) is designed to streamline processing and make your life easier.
