U.S. Adds $100 Yearly Fee to Form I-589 Asylum Filers in Removal Proceedings

The U.S. government now charges an annual $102 fee for asylum cases pending over a year, effective February 2026. This mandatory payment carries severe consequences; non-payment can lead to case dismissal and deportation. While the fee is per-application rather than per-person, no waivers are permitted. A new rule taking effect May 29, 2026, further tightens USCIS enforcement regarding payment deadlines and application rejections.
