USCIS Adds New $1,000 Parole Grant Fee in Addition to Form I-131 Parole/Re-Parole Application Fee
Posted on October 17, 2025

On Oct. 16, 2025, DHS implemented a new $1,000 fee for grants of parole and re/parole. The new fee applies when an individual is either 1) physically paroled into the United States, unless they qualify for an exception, or 2) is already present in the United States and receives a notice from USCIS that their re-parole will be approved. The $1,000 parole grant fee is due in addition to the $580 Form I-131 online filing fee. Note that individuals do not need to pay the additional $1,000 fee when they file Form I-131. Only those who are notified by USCIS that their request will be approved must pay the additional $1,000 parole grant fee. Read more
