The crystal structure and magnetic properties of polycrystalline alloys Fe_{62.5}Ni_{37.5}, Fe_{60}Ni_{40}, Fe_{50}Ni_{50} obtained by arc-melting and Fe_{40}Ni_{40}B_{20} alloy obtained by melt spinning technique were investigated by X-ray, magnetostatic and Mössbauer effect methods. The X-ray measurements show that Fe_{40}Ni_{40}B_{20} alloy has a face-centered structure (fcc) which means that boron did not cause an amorphous rendering. The lattice constants for this alloy (a = 3.53 Å) is smaller than for FeNi alloys (a > 3.57 Å) which suggests that boron atoms were built-in in the crystal lattice. The Curie temperature of this alloy is more than 150 K higher in comparison with the of FeNi alloys, but the magnetic moment connected with this alloy is more than 0.17 μ_{B}/atom smaller than the magnetic moments of FeNi alloys. The shape of hyperfine field distribution for Fe_{40}Ni_{40}B_{20} is similar to the shape of hyperfine field distribution for the investigated fcc Fe_{62.5}Ni_{37.5} alloy, but both are different from another investigated hyperfine field distribution of FeNi alloys.
