K-1 Visa fee changed?

[Maliajannah 0]

I am going to send my petition today (yay!) but I went to check on the fee to confirm the $455 fee and I found that fees have changed since June 4th... now it says the K-1 visa fee is $350... I can't believe they would have lowered the fee, does that mean I have to pay both fees now? How much do I send with the packet?

I just read a little farther down and answered my own question. Sorry to be clogging up the board with unnecessary stuff!

So it's still $455 right???

$455 for the petition

and $350 for the visa

Must pay both as each fee is for a different process.

I had called the VFS office this afternoon to ask them about K1 fees and they said its 400$ now.

It was 355$ earlier and 400$ as of now.

Now, I am confused ...what is the exact amount ?

the best thing you can do is read on the official website USCIS The fee is US$455

First understand the process. Filing a petition and applying for a visa are separate things. The petition filing fee is $455. Once the petition is approved, the foreign fiancee applies for a visa. Currently, the visa application fee (paid abroad, usually in local currency) is $350. Right now, you're filing a petition, not applying for a visa.
