We filed our I-751 in early November and received a Receipt Notice (I-797) in late December. We had paid the $205 fee but only recently realized that we didn't send the $75 fingerprinting fee!!! Prior to realizing this we were called for fingerprinting and that went through fine.

Now we don't know what to do. Should we send another check? Should we call them to check on it? Should we wait and see what happens??

Such a stupid mistake!!

Any input or suggestions would be welcome!

No worries. The new fee was added around Dec 06. People who filed prior to that haven't been asked to pay the biometric fee.

K-1 Timeline in Profile (our story)

Church wedding Sept 18

NOA1's for AOS/EAD received Sept 20 MSC #

Biometrics completed Nov 5 2004

EAD Approval Dec 29 2004

AOS appointment letter received Feb 3 2005

AOS interview scheduled for March 9 2005

AOS interview mostly fine, just need I-693 supplement filled out by civil surgeon

Spend another $40 for I-693 form, sent to local USCIS office registered mail, arrived March 11 2005

AOS finally approved March 25th 2005

Green card arrives about 10 days later

!!Green card has incorrect middle name!! Thanks USCIS

Travel back to Denver, turn in card and I-90 to correct their mistake.

Application accepted, asked for I-551 stamp, they told me "We don't do stamps anymore"

NOA1 for I-90 received from NSC April 18 2005, fee waived

NSC appears to have stoped processing I-90's

Marilyn needs to travel back to the RP, call Senators office for help with green card or I-551 stamp

Travel back to Denver July 1, 2005 and received I-551 stamp in the passport.

If you already went for Biometrics, don't worry about it. If you don't receive a request for payment, don't worry about it. Believe me, if they want money from you, you'll find out! Good luck!

Thanks for the responses. A co-worker of mine who filed in early January told me about that fee and we got very worried. I dug through our paperwork and found the instructions and the fee is not listed so it appears you are right!!

Thanks again!!
