Biometrics for H-4, L-2 & E Suspended Through 09/30/2023





USCIS announced today that it is extending suspension of the biometrics submission requirement for certain dependent applications through 09/30/2023.  Suspension was previously scheduled to end on 05/17/2023.  Specifically, biometrics are not required for applicants filing Form I-539 requesting an extension of stay in or change of status to H-4, L-2, or E nonimmigrant status.  Applicants should not pay the $85 biometrics fee in connection with these applications.
