Do a search as this question comes up a lot.

Currently the I-129F filing fee is $340

There is obtaining the police clearence for each location the beneficiary has lived at for more than 6 months since the age of 16.

Then there is the medical fee for the beneficiary: varies by Embassy but is in the $140-300 range (Depends on vaccinations needed, etc)

Interview fee for the beneficiary: varies by Embassy but is usually around $140 or the cost of a non-immigrant visa for your country.

Costs to attend the interview varies based on where the beneficiary lives in relationship to the Embassy

Mailing items back and forth $100 per package via FedEx for us.

Airline ticket to come to the US $800-2500 (a RT is usually cheaper, just cancel the return leg--this will save you from having to ask that question later on)

Marriage license to get married around $30

Marriage itself varies based on what you want to do so from $10-10,000

Adjustment of Status (AOS) $1070. That's for AOS/AP/EAD filed after getting married within the 90 day window (no time limit to file but the sooner you file the better)

Now you have the 2 year GC

ROC on the 2 year GC is $590

Now you have the 10 year GC.

Only naturaliztion is left.

As you can see if it not a cheap process. The fiancee will not be able to legally work and help with the expenses until the EAD or GC arrives.

Good luck,

Dave
