The fee hike increases the cost for Nepalese researchers seeking a 15-day decision on their petitions. The impact is purely financial and does not affect visa availability.
The policy change necessitates a more thorough verification of credentials from Nepalese institutions. Applicants should expect longer processing times as USCIS implements these additional vetting layers.
Nepalese applicants are not subject to specific backlogs in the EB-1B category. The policy update will only increase the total expenditure required for the immigration process.
The partial stay of the 2024 Fee Rule means that Nepalese applicants and their sponsors must stay informed about the specific costs associated with Form I-140, particularly the Asylum Program Fee.
Nepalese applicants for EB-1B status will now be required to use electronic payment methods for all USCIS fees. This change is part of a broader effort to eliminate paper-based financial processing.
