WRONG. The 129-F is $340.00 . Made out to The Department of Homeland Security. (Check or Money Order or Bank Cashiers Check as I did) Embassies might be different as I have been told by others. My Only Example is it was Correct that the Philipphines is $213.00 for an additional Visa Fee on top of the Medical and alot of expenses accumulate along the way. But, The Fee was reduced from $455.00 in November 2010 to $340.00. Funny though, other costs went up. The Visa fee according to Our friend in the Philipphines is $213.00 (But thats the Philipphines) Sorry MBH. Your not in the Phils. LOL

Hello.. Be sure to check the website of the USCIS before you send out your I-129F packet :-) We were one of the lucky ones who did not check it, sent it on Nov 26, 2010, but it got returned to us becuase the fees changed in November 23.. :-) Who would have known, right? But just to be sure, ALWAYS CHECK :-) Good luck! :innocent:

The I-129F petition filing fee is currently $340, since 11/23/2010.

The visa application fee for the K1 visa is $350, usually payable in the local currency based on current exchange rate. The visa application fee is paid abroad, not at the time the petition is filed.

Perhaps the medical exam in Manila is $213 but not the visa application fee. It's the same US Dollar amount everywhere.

And a whole lot of other fees that you never thought of.

Medical related expenses vary by country but the $350 visa application fee is consistent worldwide. Guess you haven't paid that fee yet?

Each visa applicant pays the visa application fee.

the $350 visa application fee is the 263€ (conversion rate 1€ for $1.33) that was called interview fee on the other post

the medical fee can be 150€ depending on the doctor if you have already the X-ray done.

Good luck on your journey
