Confused as to when / where to pay the visa fee?

[rascalflatt 6]

Hi - at NOA2 stage and wondering where we actually pay the $240 visa fee. The London embassy site says "applicants to pay the fee to the NVC before they begin processing their application"..

First I'd heard of this...confused??

Help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Actually I think I might have answered my own queestion - you do actually pay it at the Embassy (London) on the day of the interview, right?

Sorry but please could someone just confirm this - it's conflicting.

When do we actually pay the visa fees to London ? It says to pay them to the NVC but sure this isn't correct...

Do we just pay them with a credit card on the day of the interview?

Thanks

Because it's an embassy-specific question, it may be best for you to post your question on the regional forum. That way, you'll get an answer applicable to your country.

In Mongolia's case, the fee is paid at a bank before the interview. I have heard of other embassies where the fee is paid at the interview. Perhaps you can check the webpage of the London embassy?

The K-1 is a nonimmigrant visa,you don't pay anything to the NVC as that's not part of the K-1 process.

From the Embassy site:

K Visa Applicants pay the fee to the Operator Assisted Information Service prior to attending the visa interview. Instructions concerning payment will be sent to you with the appointment letter.

You call the "extortion line," pay the fee, and they will email you a receipt as a PDF. Print out copies of that receipt, sign it, and bring it with you to the interview.
