I just wanted to see if I have this right. If I apply for a K-3 visa, does it include my children under the cost? My US spouse sends in the I 130 for me which is $355. Then we send in the I-129F for $455 which includes my 3 children at no extra cost. Is this correct? I know that we have to pay the cost of the medical for all four of us. Then once we get to the USA, I can file for AOS which is $1010 for me and since I am applying for my children at the same time, it would be $600 for each one of them. Do I have it right?

I130 for me $355

I129F for me and 3 children $455

AOS for me $1010

AOS for 3 children 1800

Total $3620

I love being a Canadian.

I think you need a separate I-130 for each kid and they waive the K-3 fee since there is an I-130 for you. I believe the I-129F is only for you

The children will also need the I-130 either now or can be filed concurrently with their AOS at $355 each (we filed Rin's children concurrent with AOS). Additionally, there is no fee for the I-129F for a K-3. So back out $455, and add $1,065 for the I-130's. Also, the children have to be under 14 years old for the $600 fee. Fourteen and up would be $1,010 (same as your spouse).

So the children would be $355 plus $600 if they are under 14?

Yes. Don't forget the visa fee at the consulate. It is $131 per person.
