My husband's interview will be this morning (May 4) Manila time. I just want to know if he needs to pay something at the embassy? I already paid for the visa processing fee during the NVC stage. But is there anything else that he needs to pay there? I know that the fee was increased last year but I am not sure if we need to pay the difference or not.

Thank you in advance for your response,

No additional money is needed. He just needs to put his smile, look the CO in their eyes and be truthful. Good luck guys. You'll do fine.

For CR-1 visa you paid for visa cost directly to NVC at the prevailing rate at that time. Kinda late but he should take copy of the paid receipt just in case.

It shouldn't be an issue though.
