ST reports:
The cost for a first-time passport for an adult (age 16 and older) will increase to $135, up from the current $100, on July 13. A renewal for an adult passport will be $110, up from $75. A first-time passport or renewal for a minor (younger than 16) will be $105, up from $85.From zero to $82? From $75 to $110? American citizens might be shocked by the incredible steepness of those increases, but any immigrant who knows a thing or two about the INS's processing fees will yawn and move on.
...Travelers who need extra pages in their passports to accommodate more visas/stamps will pay $82 starting July 13. That service has been free.
