Due to limitations with the online Form I-907, representatives who previously filed a Form G-28 for Form I-765, will need to file a new Form G-28 when filing Form I-907 online to request premium processing of the underlying benefit request. Representatives who prefer not to file a second Form G-28 online must file their premium processing request and Form G-28 with the appropriate lockbox.

These fees are in addition to all other filing fees required by the application or petition you are submitting. You cannot request waiver of a fee for a form for which you are requesting premium processing.
You can pay the fee with a money order, personal check, cashier’s check, or pay by credit card using Form G-1450, Authorization for Credit Card Transactions. If you pay by check, you must make your check payable to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
When you send a payment, you agree to pay for a government service. Filing and biometric services fees are final and non-refundable, regardless of any action we take on your application, petition, or request, or if you withdraw your request. Use our Fee Calculator to help determine your fee.
Pay each filing fee separately. We are transitioning to electronically processing immigration benefit requests, which requires us to use multiple systems to process your package. We may reject your entire package if you submit a single, combined payment for multiple forms.
