From the chart http://www.visajourney.com/examples/NVC_Pr...wchart_v1-2.pdf I understand that there is a IV Bill to be paid..So i am prepared for that ..but there is no information regarding if there is a fee for I-864 document..Can anyone let me know if there is a fee for it and how much is it ? I hope is not much!

thank you in advance

Your profile and timeline indicate Adjustment of Status approved, you filed an I-864 when adjusting status. Whats this abour NVC and I-864 there? Please give us better details?

There is a fee paid to NVC for I-864 when processing a CR-1 or IR-1 visa petition, but not when adjusting status.

Well, the reason u see Adjustment of statut approved it is because i have been adjusting my statute once i get to USA....but if u open my timeline u will also see that NOW i am requestion information for of my children ..We are working on a CR2 visa ....therefore the Beneficiaries are my kids Ano and Joe..
I should probably remove the confusion ....cose thats what it causes..
Well.. do u know how much the fees are?
Thank you

The rule is that there is a fee of $70 to file with the Dept. of State an Affidavit of Support only when it is reviewed domestically (i.e. at NVC). The fee does not apply if filing the I-864 at the embassy or with USCIS for adjustment of status. Furthermore, I thought I read it somewhere, if you have several cases pending at NVC at the same time, you only pay the fee once, but I can't seem to find that statement anywhere right now. Maybe it was stated on the letter above the payment coupon?

"Affidavit of Support Review (only when AOS is reviewed domestically), Form I-864 ."

Wasnt this the first bill that NVC sent us together with a copy of DS Choice of adress and Agent? If that is the case ..i already payed that ..but i am not sure about this..

Chris, please could you clarify this to me ...At the flowchart it is not mentioned other payments other then the AOS fees and of course one more payment which is Immigration Visa fee bill ... and i thought that is for DS-230 form..am i right?
I am very confused...
thanks alot ..

There are two fee bills - the I-864 (AOS) fee bill ($70), and the DS-230 (IV) fee bill ($335+$45=$380/case).
