DHS Implements Immigration Parole Fee

On 16 October 2025, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a notice in the Federal Register advising that the agency will begin assessing and collecting a $1,000 immigration parole fee. The new fee is effective immediately and will apply to any foreign national with a filed or pending request for parole as the fee will attach at the time such requests are granted, regardless of when the underlying application or request was submitted.
