My fiance received Packet 3 today and there seemed to be conflicting information in the packet regarding visa fees. He said one letter said the visa fee was about $400. The other said it was $350. I thought the $400 might include a security fee I had read about for Kingston. Could someone with recent experience with Kingston tell me how much they had to pay in advance for the visa fee?

Thanks!

As far as I know, the fee should be $350. I'm not sure if anything has changed since we paid our fee back in August. It is very possible :(.

The following like provides a list of fees for the different visas: Travel.gov

However, I would suggest re-reading the letter in the packet to verify the information. If that does not answer your question you can try emailing them for clarification. If that doesn't get you your answer, go with the highest amount and hope your are informed otherwise. The fee is paid in Jamaican dollars and at $350 listed we still ended up paying close to $400 with exchange rate.

Good luck!

Hi, the fee is $350...i think your fiance was like mine and read too fast lol. I see the fee about $400 (i have my packet in hand as im typing) but then in bold print underneath that it says this fee does not apply to fiance/fiancee' (K1) or K3 visa applicants. Hope this helps! :) and good luck on your journey!!

Thank you so much! I think there was definitely a lack of careful reading. I haven't seen the letters and he was reading it to me over the phone. That completely explains it. Thank you again.
