The I-829 is the form used in the EB-5 program to remove the conditions on residency and convert conditional status into full permanent residency, confirming that the investment and job creation met the program requirements. It does carry a filing fee charged by USCIS.

The exact amount, however, is not something worth fixing here: USCIS fees are periodically reviewed and can change. Citing a specific figure in this type of content is precisely what leads readers to plan based on outdated information.

  • There is an official filing fee for the I-829, set by USCIS.
  • That amount may be adjusted over time.
  • There may also be additional costs depending on your case.

To find the current fee with confidence, consult the official fee schedule on the USCIS website (uscis.gov) before filing, or confirm with a qualified professional who is following your case.
