The separate $85 biometrics fee was eliminated by the USCIS final fee rule (effective April 1, 2024) and is now bundled into the base filing fee for these forms. A reduced $30 biometrics fee still applies only to TPS (I-821) and EOIR filings.
Processing times are estimates and may vary. Fees are based on current USCIS published rates and are subject to change.

How It Works
Filing an immigration application means knowing the full price before you mail anything, whether you're pursuing a green card, citizenship, a work permit, or one of the many visa categories. USCIS revised its fee schedule for 2026, and the figures here reflect those updates so you neither overpay nor come up short, the latter of which can stall your case for weeks or months.
Behind the estimate sits a database of current USCIS forms and their 2026 fees, including biometric services where they apply. For each form you select, the tool adds the base filing fee, then layers in any mandatory biometric service charge owed per applicant, so the total you see captures every required payment.
The biometric services fee trips up a lot of filers because it's billed separately from the form fee on many applications. It's also worth checking whether your situation qualifies for a fee waiver or reduced fee, since those require their own forms and are never applied for you automatically. Finally, confirm you're submitting the current edition of each form, as an outdated version is grounds for rejection on its own.
Example: Green Card Application for a Spouse with Biometrics
- 1 Input: Select 'Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative' (filing fee: $525), 'Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status' (filing fee: $1,225), and 'Biometric Services Fee' (fee: $85).
- 2 Calculation: $525 (I-130) + $1,225 (I-485) + $85 (Biometrics) = $1,835.
- 3 Result: The total estimated USCIS fee for this green card application is $1,835.
- 4 Context: This calculation provides the total USCIS filing fees for a spousal green card application, assuming the applicant is adjusting status within the United States and requires biometric services. It does not include attorney fees, medical exam costs, or any other third-party expenses.
