Half the money goes to the agency that took the claim
The document says “shall”Who acts: Executive Office for Immigration Review, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration ServicesHow: statuteSec. 100002 in the PDF
What the document says
“50 percent of the fees received from aliens filing applications with the Attorney General--”
The section credits half the fees from applications filed with the Attorney General to the Executive Office for Immigration Review, to be kept and spent without further appropriation, and half the fees from applications filed with the Secretary to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, deposited into the Immigration Examinations Fee Account and likewise kept and spent. Anything not so credited goes into the general fund of the Treasury.
What the document actually says
“50 percent of the fees received from aliens filing applications with the Attorney General--”
That sentence, in plain words
Half the money from one set of claims is kept. Those are claims filed with the law office.
What this is about
That half goes to the immigration courts. The other agency keeps half of its own. The rest goes to the Treasury.

number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
