For future reference (e.g. ROC, if applicable; or if you know someone that's going to file I-130 and/or I-485), USCIS now accepts credit cards and debit cards: https://www.uscis.gov/news/news-releases/uscis-expands-credit-card-payment-option-fees

From a quick glance everything looks good. Just 1 thing; the I-864 can be a sub-packet included in the I-485 packet. For example, it can be listed as #13 of the I-485 cover letter and #2-6 can be listed as a-e; thus a I-864 cover letter would be redundant and not necessary.
