HI ALL, I KNOW THE FILING FEES FOR K1 AOS IS $1070, AM I RIGHT? HOW DO YOU WRITE A CHECK? ON THE CHECK SAYS PAY TO THE ORDER OF AND FOR. WHO'S CHECK DID YOU USE? I DON'T HAVE MY OWN CHECK CAN I USE MY (US CITIZEN) HUSBAND'S CHECK? WE APPLY FOR JOINT ACCOUNT BUT WE HAVE NOT RECIEVE OUR CHECK YET, IT WILL HAVE MY NAME AND MY (US CITIZEN) HUSBAND'S NAME ON THAT CHECK. IF WE RECIEVE OUR JOINT ACCOUNT CHECK CAN WE USE IT FOR K1 AOS?

1) DO NOT TYPE IN ALL CAPS. It's difficult to read, and makes it seem like you're yelling.

2) You can find the current fees on the USCIS website. http://www.uscis.gov...00048f3d6a1RCRD

3) I'm fairly certain that your husband will know how to write a check. Either his check or a check from your joint account will be fine. The instructions for the form I-485 (in the above link) have the mailing address (page 5 -6) and who the check should be made out to (page 8).

PAYMENT

Personal checks must be pre-printed with the name of the bank and the account holder. Also, the account holder’s address and phone number must be pre-printed, typed or written in ink on the check. All checks must be typed or written in ink.

1. Write the date you are filling out the check including: day, month and year.

2. On the “Pay to the Order of” line write: “U.S. Department of Homeland Security.”

3. Write in numbers the exact dollar amount of the fee for the service you are requesting. In the example, the amount is “$595.00.”

4. Spell out the exact dollar amount of the fee for the service you are requesting. The “cents” portion of the amount should be written as a fraction over 100. In this example, the amount is “Five hundred ninety-five and 00/100.”

5. Write a brief description of the purpose of your payment. In this example, it is “N-400 application fee.”

6. Sign the check using your legal signature.

I have an AOS guide in my signature :)

moved from pi regional to Adjustment of Status (Green Card) from Family Based Visas as this topic fits better there and nothing within it is regional specific.
