US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) ne EB-5 visa ki application fees ko **30 November** se double karne ka elaan kar diya hai. Indian families jo US mein settlement ka plan kar rahe hain, unhe ab apni pocket aur dheeli karni padegi.
USCIS ka naya shock
USCIS ne apne fee structure mein bada badlav kiya hai. Jo log EB-5 Immigrant Investor Programme ke zariye permanent residency lena chahte hain, unhe ab apni jeb se zyada paisa nikalna hoga. Is badlav ka maqsad agency ke operational costs ko cover karna hai.
Kitna badha kharcha?
- Form I-526: Iski fee $3,675 se badhkar seedha $7,615 ho gayi hai.
- Technology Surcharge: Har petition par ab $75 ka extra charge lagega.
- Regional Centers: Agar aap I-956 file kar rahe hain, toh fee $17,795 se badhkar $44,115 ho jayegi.
- Form I-956F: Iski fee ab $42,675 hogi.
Indian Investors ke liye kya impact hai?
Core investment amount toh wahi hai—$8,00,000 (Targeted Employment Areas ke liye) ya $1.05 Million—lekin ye administrative fees add hokar total cost ko kafi upar le jati hain. Investors ab ye ummeed kar rahe hain ki itni badi fees ke baad processing speed aur efficiency mein bhi sudhaar aayega, jo ki kaafi samay se ek bada pain point bana hua hai.
