The stated effective date has passed. A later rule, court order or withdrawal can change whether it still applies; check the source and any later records.
This document corrects the interim final rule (IFR) that published in the Federal Register on April 29, 2026. The IFR codified certain immigration fees and other provisions required by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1) and amended USCIS regulations governing asylum and annual asylum fees, the new Form I-94 fee requirement, the validity period for certain types of employment authorization, and the retention of the Form I-589 filing fee for every application. This document will restore regulatory language that was unintentionally removed in the April 29, 2026 IFR.
