Certificate of Citizenship Fee Increasing (www.adoptivefamilies.com)

 

As urgently reported by the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute (CCAI), “On December 23, 2016, the fee for the form to request a U.S Certificate of Citizenship for adopted children (form N-600/N-600K) is [more than] doubling from $550 to $1,170. Anyone who files an adoption application or petition on or after December 23rd will have to pay the new amount.” The fee to replace a lost COC (form N-565) is also rising, from $345 to $555.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) last adjusted their fee schedule in 2010. They described the forthcoming increases as “necessary to fully recover costs and maintain adequate service.” Full story.
