visa fees
 

Hi

i am in the process to pay the fees to nvc for immigrant visa.

I can see its showing 325Usd per person.

I know the next one will be the medical fees which i need to pay in london.

after get the visa do i need to pay any fees in UK or any fees in the usa after landed there?
if yes how much?

on the another note i need to ask if someone of the principal applicant dependent has age over 21 when they got the letter from NVC to submit the documents so at that time will they also eligible to apply for the visa application ?



Thanks

Re: visa fees
 

Dependents, children are by definition under 21.

Re: visa fees
 

In London there will be the fee for the medical, perhaps fee to your primary for the summary of your medical records, additional immunizations needed, if any, courier fee, fee to have the green card made after entry (fee can be paid in the UK or at the POE) and the fee for the visa. Wasn't the fee you sent to the NVC for the clearance of the Affidavit of Support?

Re: visa fees
 

Thanks for your reply.

do you know how much is the fees for the Green card if we pay here in UK and whats the green card fees if we pay after arrival in USA?

Re: visa fees
 

Thanks .

can you please clarify more, they were under 21 when the petiotioner file I-130.

so in the case what could be done?

Re: visa fees
 

It is not when the petition has been filed but the age of the person at the time of the acceptance of the I-130 by USCIS. What was their age then?

Have you searched this forum for information on the fees and procedures for the interview in the Embassy? Have you looked at the US Consulate London website? It should all be listed there. Do you have an attorney working with you>

Re: visa fees
 

Thanks for the info.


The case was approved On May 28, 2015 so what does it mean?

Re: visa fees
 

I have looked the embassy website and notice that the visa fees is $325 per applicant .

It doesnot shown the fees for Green card.

do you how much is the fees for the green card ?

We are total 3 dependents ( age 10, 7.5 and 2.5 years) so how much is the fees for them ?

Re: visa fees
 

The fee is the same whether it's paid in the UK or the USA.

Re: visa fees
 

How old was this person on May 28, 2015?

Rene

Re: visa fees
 

$220 each.

Rene

Re: visa fees
 

he was 19 years old on may 28.

Re: visa fees
 

is $220 regardless of age?

how long it takes to received the Green card?

Re: visa fees
 

I belive the fee is the same regardless of age.

Once you arrive in the USA, you get your green card immediately in the form of an I-551 stamp in your passport, valid for 1 year. The plastic card should come in the mail within about 6 months.

Re: visa fees
 

Then I believe he should be safe under the Child Status Protection Act.

Re: visa fees
 

Do i need to pay any fees for I-551 ?

or the fees for Green card?

Re: visa fees
 

The I-551 is the Green Card. An "I-551 stamp" in your passport is a temporary substitution for the card itself.

Re: visa fees
 

Thanks .

so when they stamped it at airport they wont charge anything?

but they do charge $220 / applicant when i am going to applying plastic card is that right ?

Re: visa fees
 

If you didn't pay the fee in the UK, you will need to pay it at the POE.

You won't be applying for the plastic card, that comes in the mail automatically.

Basically, regarding the fee for production of the plastic green card, you have 2 choices. 1) Pay it in the UK before you leave, or 2) Pay it at the POE in the USA when you land.

I would say most people pay it in the UK, then they don't have to worry about it while dealing with all the other stuff to do at the POE.

You will receive instructions for payment in the envelope with your passport/visa inside that you get via courier, after your visa interview.

Rene

Re: visa fees
 

You don’t have to pay it at the POE if you haven’t already paid it before you leave your homeland. You can pay it after you settle into your new home. USCIS will start to chase with payment reminders once they receive notification that you have arrived, and no plastic card will be issued until payment is made. It makes sense to pay it as early as possible and get it out of the way but it is incorrect to say they will have to pay $220 pp “at the POE when they land”.

Re: visa fees
 

Thank you very much.

So if i am not wrong we can pay for the plastic card after we landed and gone home and then apply online later from home is that my correct understanding?

Re: visa fees
 

Correct

Re: visa fees
 

Yes, although "apply" is the wrong word. You aren't applying for anything. You are just paying a fee.

Rene

Re: visa fees
 

Thank you for the clarification.

Re: visa fees
 

Thank you

guys

My sponsor is self employed and he was filling AOS ( I-864) whle we were reading the instruction in the checklist it saying below.

if you are currently self employed a copy of your schedule C,D,E OR F from your most recent federal income tax returns which establish your income from your business ?

can anyone tell me what is this?

how can i get this?

Re: visa fees
 

If your sponsor is self employed, he will know what that is (part of his US tax returns). You don't need to get that form yourself. Your sponsor will have it, and will include in the I-864 package.

Rene

Re: visa fees
 

As a foreigner it is understandable that you would not know what the schedules are. Your sponsor will know and he/she is the one that is completing the I-864, not you, so it is her/his responsibility.

Re: visa fees
 

Yes

Re: visa fees
 

thanks.

If i say yes then what explanation to add can you advice?

thanks

Re: visa fees
 

You have details of the incident, nothing to explain.

Re: visa fees
 

Is that allright to explain this incident ?

is there any chance it may go againts me? evan i pay fine.

Please advice

Re: visa fees
 

No, it will not go against you. It was an accident.

There is no reason why you had to repost this again on this thread when you had posted to this elsewhere and were given responses there.

Re: visa fees
 

I am not sure what you are trying to explain, you have a conviction, you were fined, you paid the fine.

Re: visa fees
 

Really the only advice we can give you is to answer to the best of your knowledge, bring proof of everything to the interview, and let the interviewing officer decide. They can change the answer on the DS form if necessary.

You might want to get an immigration lawyer to assist you with all this paperwork.

:goodpost:
I said the same before. English is not his first language and fear of making a mistake because he misunderstands is driving everyone nuts including himself. Why isn't his wife doing the paperwork for herself and the children? Or is she has hindered by the lack of English as he is?

Re: visa fees
 

Perhaps I can make a somewhat subtle point, one that even immigration lawyers have trouble understanding. An immigrant visa is, in legal speak, “non-discretionary.” Either you qualify or you don’t. Whether one is deserving or not doe not, or should not, enter into the equation. The dividing line may not be distinct at times, but it is there.

Re: visa fees
 

The term “arrest” is what us legal types call a “term of art.” It seems to me that you were “arrested.” But I can see why you might say you were not. But the main thing is you must disclose the incident.
