I-864....$70 check???HELP!

[cali889 0]

Hi!

I am sending my AOS package today (I-130, 1-485, G-325A, I-693, I-765, and I-864)

I am attaching two checks: one for $355 and another for $1,010.

My wife and I are currently in the U.S.

Do I need to add a $70 check payable to the Department of State for the I-864???

Thanks

The $1010 paid to USCIS for the I-485 also covers the I-864.

NVC is NOT handling the I-864 as in the case of an IMMIGRANT visa so you dont pay them anything.

Moving this to the OTHER AOS forum, it looks like you are NOT adjusting from a K-Visa if you are including an I-130.

Cali - We are in the same boat, we are going to be mailing out our forms tomorrow afternoon. From my understanding from the website it looks like we need to pay $70.00

This is what the website says:

Filing Fee :

Although USCIS does not charge a fee for this form, the Department of State does charge a fee of $70 when the Affidavit of Support is reviewed domestically. This does not apply when the Affidavit of Support is filed abroad.

Anyhow my wife and I are looking at your post and notice that you are submitting a I-765. Make sure to send $340 for this form.

Best wishes and good luck

OK

PS- Out of curiosity where are you mailing your applications to?

Wrong What NVC is saying is if the I-864 is being handled by NVC domestically as in an IMMIGRANT visa case, you pay them the $70 when the request the I-864. NVC is NOT USCIS. USCIS does NOT change a fee to process I-864.

Filing Fee : $0.00

AND WRONG!! The FEE for I-485 also pays for I-765 when I-765 is based on pending I-485.

NOTE: If you filed a Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, as of July 30, 2007, no fee is required to also file a request for employment authorization on Form I-765. You may file the I-765 concurrently with your I-485, or you may submit the I-765 at a later date. If you file Form I-765 separately, you must also submit a copy of your Form I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt as evidence of the filing of an I-485 as of July 30, 2007.

Please DO NOT post replies without first researching your answers.

Fees are $355 for I-130 and $1010 for I-485+I-765+I-131, and I-864.

Everything is mailed together to the Chicago PO box specified in the I-485 directions.
