Hi everyone,

 

I'm planning on submitting the I-129F within the next 2 weeks, but I'm a bit confused about which fee to include. I know USCIS implemented fee changes that became effective yesterday Oct. 2. However, USCIS's page about Form I-129F still lists the old fee. Which one is correct to submit? I obviously don't want to get it wrong and have our submission rejected. Thanks!

 

Previous fee: $535

New fee: $510
