USCIS Plans Massive Fee Hike For Access To Genealogical Records

If you have ever wanted to trace your family’s immigration history, you should do it now—accessing genealogical records from the 1800s and 1900s may soon become far more expensive than ever before.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is planning to increase its fees to access millions of historical records held under the agency’s Genealogy Program. This includes citizenship and alien registration files, naturalization records, visa applications, and other documents.

In some cases, the fees to access these files would triple. In other instances, the fees would increase by nearly 500%, shooting up from $130 to $625 to obtain a single paper file.

This fee hike would price many people out of obtaining their own families’ immigration records. more: https://www.inmigracionyvisas.com/a4692-Fee-Hike-for-Access-to-Genealogical-Records.html
