The proposed increase on green card applications is 79%.
citizenship application up by 83%, from $640 to $1,170.

Plus they’re eliminating some of the waivers that low-income immigrants have to be able to file for citizenship, even if they can’t afford it marketplace.org/2020/01/03/imm…
There are immigrants working in chicken farms, shit piss infested toxic 120 degrees chicken farms for $20-$30 a day, half of which if not most is taken to pay back the loan they took to her here in the first place. The rest goes to be packed 20 per trailer ( housing).
3/ how the fuck can anyone afford anything to attempt to adjust an immigration status with these fees knowing all have to spend hundreds ro@het their documents in orders, fingerprinting etc etc... plus a LAWYER!
I think every employer employing immigrants and paying them below prevailing wages should be f*****k ordered to pay THIS DISCRIMINATORY AND RACISM MOTIVATED increase in immigration fees on behalf of the employees they profit off to begin with. @HomelandKen Cuccinelli 🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏾🖕🏿
Speaking of increased fees there are non profits out there creating lending programs for low income immigrants who can not afford the uscis increase in fees to pay for modernization they f***k and are over $ 1 billion over budget while canceling premium processing.
97% of USCIS budget comes from fees.
They have been running in about $4 billion a year as operating budget since 2014. The volume of petitions per year tripled since. Guess where some of that money is being diverted to.
