Anyone knows if it is alright to send a starter check for the I-751 payment? I've read somewhere that some establishments may not accept personal starter checks, I wonder if US DHS will accept it. Thanks.

I don't know the answer to this, but just make sure you don't make it payable to US DHS. That made my stomach flip flop a little. Spell it out. And sorry if you knew this already, but I always feel so sorry for people who make the cheques payable to USCIS or use the acronym that you mentioned above.

Honestly though, a cheque is a cheque .. why wouldn't someone accept a starter cheque?

Alright. I know that the check or money order is payable to (spelled out) U.S. Department of Homeland Security, no initials. Thanks.

It is a valid check drawn from a US bank - no problem. :thumbs:
