preinterview jitters

[karenkaye 1]

Hi everyone! I have a couple of questions I am hoping someone may be able to help me with. I am Cdn married to USC and have a CR-1 interview date in Montreal for February 22nd. We have paid all fees up to and including the $380 IV application fee. Does anyone know if we will be required to pay any additional fees when we arrive at the consulate in Montreal? I had it in my head that there was another $131 fee due but cannot find any mention of it in my letters received from NVC or in the info provided via the Department of State link in the interview letter. On the Consulate website under immigrant visas for family members I did see that there was a $131 fee that had to be prepaid via deposit at Scotiabank and receipts thereof needing to be submitted with the application (the website info also talked about expresspost envelopes being available for purchase at the consulate while the Montreal consulate info accessed via the interview letter link specifically says to bring an envelope with us) Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Oh yes.......can anyone comment on the necessity of bringing proof of a bonafide marriage along to their interview. Thanks very much! Karen

Hi!

I believe the $131 is for K-3 visa applicants. (I'm not %100 sure, though ). Not sure about the proof of a bonafide marriage, but we're taking some just to be on the safe side.

Best of luck to you! Our interview is on the same day as yours!

The $131 Fee is for the K3 applicants. Your interview fee was covered in the IV Fee so you already paid it. Good luck on your interview btw!
