USCIS INTRODUCES ACH PAYMENT FOR IMMIGRATION FEES

USCIS INTRODUCES ACH PAYMENT FOR IMMIGRATION FEES #america #usa #greencard #uscis

“USCIS has just announced a major change in how you pay your immigration fees. Starting August 29, 2025, you’ll be able to pay using your U.S. bank account through a new ACH option. But here’s the twist: paper checks and money orders are going away this fall. Let’s talk about what this means for you.” 1. What’s Changing? • “Starting August 29, 2025, USCIS is introducing Form G-1650. This allows you to pay your immigration fees through ACH, directly from your U.S. bank account.” • “At the same time, USCIS is phasing out paper checks and money orders. After October 28, 2025, these will no longer be accepted.” • “Credit card payments will still be available through Form G-1450, as long as the card is issued by a U.S. bank.” 2. Why the Change? • “This update is part of a government-wide modernization effort to move away from paper-based payments.” • “ACH payments are faster, easier to track, and reduce errors or fraud compared to mailing checks.” • “For applicants, it means fewer delays and better transparency.” 3. Potential Challenges • “Not everyone will benefit equally. Here are some concerns to watch for: 1. U.S. Bank Account Required – ACH payments only work if you have a U.S. account. Applicants abroad or newly arrived may not. 2. Insufficient Funds – If your account doesn’t have enough balance, the payment fails—and your entire application could be rejected. 3. Transition Period – Between now and October 28, both old and new payment methods are in play, which could confuse applicants.” 4. Tips for Applicants • “First, make sure you have a valid U.S. bank account before filing. • Second, always double-check your balance before submitting an ACH payment. • Third, if you don’t have a U.S. account, consider paying with a credit card until you can set one up.” 5. Final Takeaway • “USCIS is going paperless. ACH payments will speed up the system, but applicants need to be prepared for the transition.” • “Don’t let a simple payment issue cause delays or rejections in your immigration case.”
