    Emilio Gonzalez, Citizenship and Immigration Services director, said more than 99 percent of the agency's costs are paid for with application fees. The increases are needed to make up for lost revenue and to help the agency become "the immigration service of the 21st century," he said.

    "We need to grow. We need to strengthen. We need to modernize. We need to provide the very best possible customer service. We need to provide the very best possible security infrastructure for what we do," Gonzalez said.

    The agency said the new fees would reduce average application processing times by 20 percent by the end of September 2009.

    So...to cover costs and lessen wait times would seem to be the answer.
