Hi,

I heard information about a fee increase that was in affect beginning July 13, 2010. I came across the fee for the K-1 Visa which is still at $455.00, but then read that there is a new fee of $350.00 which is the cost for the interview at the US consulate.

I also read on VJ that the K-1 Visa decreased to an amount of $350.00. I am confused. There is a lot of different posts I have been reading and I am not sure which is accurate. Can somebody confirm what is correct change with the charges for the K-1 Visa?

Greatly appreciated.

I-129F petition for the right to ask for a K-1 visa is $455.00

K-1 visa interview fee effective June 4, 2010 raised to $350.00 per visa applicant including each minor dependent child requesting the K-2 visa.

Naturalization N-400

It looks like the I-129F filing fee (for the petition) is coming down, as well, to 340.00 - but it's NOT been 'set' yet - see http://www.visajourney.com/news/2010/06/11/update-uscis-proposes-increased-fees-for-immigration-benefits/

The IV fee for the CR-1/IR-1 has increased already, alas...

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

The $455.00 fee is the fee to submit the I-129F Petition

The $350.00 fee is for the Interview at the Embassy.

I hope this helps
