Did any of you guys hear about this?

http://www.travel.state.gov/news/press/press_4603.html

Am I understanding this correctly , that all K visa applicants will have to pay $350 at the Embassy when coming to an interview? That's a big jump from $131....wow, that's on top of the petition cost of $455 with I-129F?

I know it is not approved yet or anything, but since I am just now about to send the petition , by the time it is approved it will be.

I am a little confused....

Yes - it's a proposed increase (old news actually).

Have to wait and see if they pass it.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.
