What is the value of the Affidavit of Support fee (AOS fee)?

When starting a family-based immigration process, it is common to have questions about the fees involved, including those related to Adjustment of Status (AOS). It is important to highlight that, in the specific case of the Affidavit of Support form (Form I‑864), there is no exclusive fee charged for this document.

In general, this form is submitted together with the Adjustment of Status application, which has its own fee. For most applicants between the ages of 14 and 78, the current fee for Adjustment of Status (Form I‑485) is US$ 1,225, an amount that already includes both the processing fee and biometric data collection.

It is worth noting that if the applicant is under 14 years old and is being included in the parents’ Adjustment of Status application, the fee may be different. Therefore, it is important to consult the official instructions on the USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) website, as these fees can be updated periodically.

We remind you that strictly following U.S. immigration laws and regulations is essential to avoid future problems. Cautiously, always seek information from official sources or through specialized professionals, so you are not victimized by scams or marketing campaigns promising results without legal basis. Staying well informed is one of the essential steps to ensure the process proceeds correctly and safely.
