Ok, I'm reading conflicting data on the use of a personal check or not? How has the latest info? Also, if I was figerprinted for my K-1 visa do I need to pay the $70 for it again?

Thanks

You need to pay the $70 fee. Don't know about checks because we used a money order. If I remember right the payment for AOS with the biometrics fee was $395, but somebody correct me if I'm wrong. It's always better to check on the uscis.gov website for fees and forms, so you don't miss any updates and send an outdated form or an incorrect fee by accident.

The instructions in form I-485 say to use either check or money order so either is fine.
