Aside from the initial filing fee of $340.00, I'm confused about what some of the upcoming fees are. I know there's the medical, ASC, and a fee that has to be paid online with the DS-260? I'm not sure.

There is no fee for the ASC appointment.

There is a 350 dollar visa fee when you make the interview appointment. There is also a medical fee which if I remember correctly is something like 180 dollars.

I am paying for my interview today (through the bank) and it came to 4550 MX Pesos. Then there's the medical, the approximate price of which is on the Juarez consulate review page :)

Personally I am more worried about the AOS fees. Love is expensive!
