What happens if I can not afford the Form N-400 filing fee?

If the applicant is unable to pay the filing fee for form N-400, application for U.S. Citizenship and the total household income is lower than 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, then the service fee will be waived. Applicants may request a fee waiver if they are unable to pay the filing fees or biometric services fee. When requesting a fee waiver, applicants must complete Form I-912 Request for Fee Waiver and provide proof that they are unable to pay the fees.

Applicants are eligible to file Form I-912 if:

  • Either the applicant, their spouse, or the head of household living with the applicant, is currently receiving a means-tested benefit;
  • The total household income is at or below 150 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines at the time the applicant submits the application;
  • The applicant is currently experiencing financial hardship that prevents he/she from paying the filing fee, including unexpected medical bills or emergencies.
