What Form I-694 is for
Used in certain public charge and benefits-related contexts to appeal specific agency decisions.
Notice of Appeal of Decision (I-694) is generally filed by applicants who received an unfavorable USCIS decision and want to appeal or reopen it. Whether this form fits your situation depends on your specific facts, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official USCIS page before you file.

Fees and official sources
USCIS filing fees change periodically and vary by category, age, and filing method. We do not quote government fees from memory. Always verify the current I-694 filing fee, payment method, and any form-specific fee rules on the official USCIS page before you submit.
Processing times for I-694 vary widely by service center, workload, and case complexity, and they change month to month. Check current estimates with the USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice rather than relying on a fixed number. Filing a complete, well-organized packet is the best way to avoid Requests for Evidence that add delay.
USCIS government fees are separate from Asal preparation fees. Verify current fees on USCIS.gov.
