Good thing I read this entry. I thought the fee was $455. I wrote a check for $455 because I am planning to send the package this week. I guess I need to re-write the check for $350? hey, nothing wrong with saving $105 :)

The fee is $455 to send the I-129F package. The $350 that is being discussed in this thread is what needs to be paid the date of the interview to get issued the Visa.

Posted

455.00 for I-129f application fee when sending package. 350.00 (plus other small fees) on the day of the interview.

My fiancee had her interview 4 days ago. She paid $350 at the interview. You can choose to pay before the interview day or pay on the day of the interview just before you are attended to. Either way is acceptable, but check their site for an updated info as things change all the time, or send them an email with all inquiries at LagosIV@state.gov, they usually reply within 2 business days.
