quick question, if I may:

I am processing my wife and my 5 year old step-daughter for CR1 VISAs...

I paid the AOS fee($70) and am now waiting for the IV bill to arrive. When I paid the AOS fee payment for one equaled payment for both(I was only required to pay $70 once, not for both).....Will the same occur with the IV fee? Will I pay $400 or $800?
