Yes, personal check is ok. Just make sure you have the correct amount (it's $1,070 now), and it's payable to U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

There are only 2 pages, it used to be 5. (4 biographic information pages and 1 page for instructions)

You only print and submit the page with the Biographic Information and signature. The instruction page is not needed for submission.
