The application fee for a K1 or K2 nonimmigrant visa is US$350, payable only in Philippine pesos at the

prevailing exchange rate. There are three ways to pay the K visa application fee: cash payment at any Bank of the

Philippine Islands (BPI) branch; online payment bill option provided by BPI to their clients; or online payment

through Bancnet. For additional information, please visit http://www.ustraveldocs.com/ph. This visa fee is

non-transferrable and is valid for one year.

$340 is the petition fee, that you paid with the 129f.

$350 is the fee at the embassy.

(BTW, Texas is not a service center, you are either at Vermont EAC or California WAC, its the first three letters of the control number on your 797, NOA1)
