The Department of Justice (DOJ) published an interim final rule that updates its fee regulations for filings with the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). EOIR is the part of DOJ that handles immigration court proceedings and related administrative matters.

According to the rule, DOJ is making these updates to comply with a recent statutory enactment. That means the fee amounts and/or fee rules may change for people who file documents with EOIR.

Because this is an interim final rule, it takes effect while the rulemaking process continues. The Federal Register notice explains that the updates are intended to match the new law’s requirements.
