Hi All,

Can someone verify if I am missing any fee here

I-485 : $985. (Add $85 biometric fee for a total of $1070, )

I-130 : $420

I guess there is no fees for EAD and ADP. Also , can i just write one check for 1070 + 420 or there has to be a separate check?

Thanks.

GC1981 there is no fee for the I-765 and I-131 when filed concurrently with I-485. So if you are submitting the I-485 at the same time, then you don't have to pay an extra fee beyond the $1070 ($985 + $85 for biometrics). That is for the I-485 specifically.

I-765 is for EAD (employment authorization document) and I-131 is for Advance Parole Travel Document.

Oh good!

You're very welcome! Best wishes!

So If I send all my forms ( EAD + ADP , I-130 , I-485 ) together in one packet all I have to pay is $1070 ($985 + $85 for biometrics).

Thats pretty cool. Thanks Guys.

No, I think there is a separate fee for the I-130 but I can't speak to that. Someone else will have to give you clarification on that.

It's not to be mixed up with the I-131 which is for the Advance Parole/ Travel Document. It's the I-485 (adjustment of status), I-765 (employment authorization document - EAD) and I-131 (advance parole / travel document) that you can file concurrently and pay $1070.

Checking the site out listed in my signature. It has simple step-by-step instructions and checklists, which should answer all your questions, and make sure you're mot missing anything. After all you want to avoid a RFE. Good luck!

No, there is a separate fee for the I-130. That is $420

If you send all your forms together in one packet, all you have to pay is $1070 + $420 = $1490.

i-765 + i-131 is free with i-485. But not the i-130.

You can choose to write it in separate checks if you like, i didn't do that and i had no problems.

your'e welcome good.gif
