UNDATED - Immigrants in Georgia and across that country are looking to a February 19 date when the cost of applying to become a citizen and getting a green card goes up. <br>
<br>
Immigration and Naturalization Service officials plan to use the additional revenue to speed up processing time. Estimated waiting times for a green card in Georgia are reportedly near a year and a half.<br>
<br>
On the high side, the increase is expected to result in an additional $100 or more for some applicants.<br>
<br>
Word is apparently getting around, with some immigrants trying to get paperwork in before the increase.
