Other immigrant visa applications (including I-360) – $220 per applicant
For more information, review the Press Release and Fees for Visa Services.

Hello a woman,how are you doing? I remember your story very well and if you can recall, I once responded to your post some weeks ago. All is well my sister. Talking about the U.S. Embassy telling you to bring your passport is a good good time. It is a positive thing, and you do not have to be afraid and confused. Just take your passport to them with confidence. Be ready for any further interview if needed, but do know that telling you to bring your passport is a very very positive ending for your case. God bless you.

Magandang araw po!
