STATE DEPARTMENT RELEASES FINAL RULE ON FEE WAIVERS FOR CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS The State Department has issued a final rule governing the granting of fee waivers for nonimmigrant visa applicants coming to work for charitable organizations. The rule is quite short and basically says that the charitable organization must be tax exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. If it is not a US charitable organization, documentation should be submitted proving the organization's home country government recognizes the organization as a charitable organization. If the organization is based in a country without such laws, the organization can still be exempt if it engages in activities substantially similar to a 501(c)(3) organization.
