Hello

I have a few quick questions about the AOS package. I am submitting my AOS + EAD package to the Chicago dropbox as one package.

* Can I combine the payments for I-485, biometrics and I-765?

* Do I need to pay for biometrics for both I-485 and I-765?

* Do I have to pay via a postal order as I live in Chicago, or can I walk the package in and use a cheque?

Thank you in advance.

Nearly got this package sorted.....

Oh and do AOS applicants require an infopass appointment?

* Can I combine the payments for I-485, biometrics and I-765?

I would do them as seperate personal check / money orders so you can track each one individually (they are adjudicated on seperately).

* Do I need to pay for biometrics for both I-485 and I-765?
Only one biometrics fee because you're submitting them at the same time.
* Do I have to pay via a postal order as I live in Chicago, or can I walk the package in and use a cheque?
Not sure what you mean by "walk the package in", but you need to use either a money order (doesnt have to be a USPS money order - western union is fine as well). You can also use a personal check if you want.
Oh and do AOS applicants require an infopass appointment?
Unless you need help filling out the documentation, you dont need to use an infopass appointment.

You can use a postal money order or a check. Either will work. However, you will need to mail the entire packet in even if you live next door to the lockbox. They will not take any walk-in applications.
