- Most Employment Authorization Document fees rise to $560 for many initial filings and to $280 for many renewals, with TPS-related EADs following the same increases.
- The I-821 application for Temporary Protected Status increases to $510 and the I-131 Part 9 EAD tied to re-parole rises to $280.
- USCIS lists several fees that do not change for 2026, including the I-589 initial asylum filing at $100, asylum EAD renewals at $275, and the I-360 Special Immigrant Juvenile fee at $250.
