🚨 **IMMIGRATION NEWS UPDATE — ASYLUM FEES**
**ENGLISH VERSION**
The Department of Homeland Security, DHS, announced new consequences for asylum applicants who do not pay the required Annual Asylum Fee.
Starting **May 29, 2026**, if USCIS notifies an asylum applicant that the Annual Asylum Fee is due and the person does not pay within **30 days**, USCIS may **reject the pending asylum application**.
If the asylum application is rejected, USCIS may also:
1. Deny any pending work permit application, Form I-765, based on that asylum case.
2. End the person’s current asylum-based work authorization immediately.
3. Start removal proceedings if the person has no lawful status in the United States.
DHS also announced other new H.R. 1 requirements:
• USCIS may keep the Form I-589 asylum filing fee even if the form is rejected for being improperly filed.
• TPS work authorization may be limited to one year or the remaining TPS designation period, whichever is shorter.
• Form I-102 will now require at least a $24 filing fee, plus any other required fees.
DHS says public comments may be submitted on or before **June 29, 2026**.
✅ **Important:** Anyone with a pending asylum case should carefully watch for USCIS or EOIR notices, pay any required fee on time, and keep proof of payment.

🚨 **MIZAJOU IMIGRASYON — FRÈ AZIL ANYÈL**
**VÈSYON KREYÒL AYISYEN**
Depatman Sekirite Enteryè, DHS, anonse nouvo konsekans pou moun ki gen dosye azil annatant epi ki pa peye frè azil anyèl la.
Apati **29 me 2026**, si USCIS voye avi bay yon moun pou fè l konnen li dwe peye frè azil anyèl la, epi moun nan pa peye nan **30 jou**, USCIS ka **rejte dosye azil la**.
Si USCIS rejte dosye azil la, sa ka lakòz lòt pwoblèm tou:
1. USCIS ka refize nenpòt aplikasyon pèmi travay, Form I-765, ki baze sou dosye azil sa a.
2. Moun nan ka pèdi otorizasyon travay li touswit.
3. Si moun nan pa gen lòt estati legal Ozetazini, USCIS ka kòmanse pwosedi depòtasyon kont li.
DHS anonse lòt nouvo kondisyon tou anba lwa H.R. 1:
• USCIS ka kenbe frè Form I-589 la menm si yo rejte aplikasyon azil la paske li pa byen ranpli.
• Pèmi travay pou moun ki sou TPS ka limite a yon ane oswa rès peryòd TPS la, selon sa ki pi kout la.
• Form I-102 ap gen yon frè minimòm $24, plis lòt frè ki ka obligatwa.
DHS di piblik la ka voye kòmantè jiska **29 jen 2026**.
✅ **Enpòtan:** Tout moun ki gen dosye azil annatant dwe byen suiv avi USCIS oswa EOIR yo, peye frè yo alè, epi kenbe prèv peman an.
