Default Fee for N-400

The INS website says the new fee for the citizenship application is $320, and there may be a $70 biomentric fee as well. Is the total fee for the appliation $390? Do you then include a check for the full amount $390 with the application?

Thanks in advance!

I have been told it's better to write separate checks in case any of these are returned to you for any reason

I always send them a money order so that there is no chance they are returned

Yeah but with a money order you can't keep track of the payment

Why not? There are many money orders with stubs.

So you can check if your payment has been cashed?

Yes. ONE check to be made out to the "US Citizenship and Immigration Services" for $390. See page 13 of the "A Guide to Naturalization" under Q12 "How can I make my application fee?"

For multiple filing of petitions, yes that is correct. For the N-400 there is only one petition and one fee for fingerprinting. So in that instance, one check is perfect.

Why would you pay with a money order if you couldn't prove you made the
payment?
