The Section 245(i) penalty fee is $1,000, and is
in addition to any other filing fees. This fee does not have to
be paid when relatives or employers submit the immigration petition
or labor certification on or before April 30, 2001. Rather, it is
usually due later when the alien applies for adjustment of status.
Thus, the $1,000 fee needs to be paid at the time of filing the
Form I-485A, which is submitted along with the standard application
for adjustment of status (Form I-485).
