Fees for obtaining permanent residency, naturalization process and other immigrant paperwork just got more expensive in the US, and in some cases prices were increased by 100%. The cost of naturalization increased from US$400 to US$675 and residency increased from US$300 to US$1,000. US Citizens and Immigration Services says that the increases in costs are necessary in order to improve their services. Authorities estimate that revenues will increase by US$1 billion in the next fiscal year and processing time is expected to be reduced by 20% by the end of the 2009 fiscal year.
