PETITION F1. Fees for AOS and Immigration Visa after NVC Welcome letter received.

[EireneFaith 58]

HELLO!

Finally, after 11 years of waiting we received The NVC Welcome letter. After 2 days NVC emailed me about payments of AOS and IV Application Processing fees. I paid the AOS through CEAC and after 4 days the payment was received and shown as PAID. I am trying to pay the IV Application Processing fee but the CEAC doesn't allow me. I tried it again and again but I couldn't.  This is the step 3 on the Immigrant Visa process is to pay the AOS and IV Processing fees. 

 Has anyone experienced how to pay the Immigration Visa Processing fee through CEAC?

 

Thank you once again VJ family for sharing your experiences and advice.

After you log in the CEAC website. There should be 2 options for paying, 1 for the petitioner and below that 1 for the applicants  IV fee. You pay each separately.

Thank you AlaMike for your advise. I just got an email today from NVC with the attachment of Immigrant Visa Application fee Invoice. I need to fill up first DS-261 form before I can pay the IV Application fee. 

Have a good one😊. Thank you again.

I think you have to pay for everything first before it will allow you to enter the IV information or I-864 info. After you pay you will get another email letting you know, you can now fill out the next information.
