I don't know if you want to include it in a list of I-129F fees too but you'll also have to pay for the medical. I'm having mine in july but the fee is around $300-400 from what i hear, obvs depending on vaccinations that you'll need etc

[Jacque and Gerry 5]

Yea medical is $350 in Canada. Not sure about other countries.

thanks everyone

I was trying to do the math last night,

I need to add in round trip airfare to be at the interview and my loves flight back

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

Dont forget to add in all the other incedetals taxis, hotels, flights, food etc it is a lot of things you find out as you are going through the process and these may be something you might do for your SO anyway but it is part of the whole process

Perhaps this is the information you seek. The direct link is no longer on VJ. There is also a fee for medical exam and possibly a nominal visa delivery fee. both of which would vary by country.

USCIS reduced the filing fee for I-129F this past November.

The fees that I, Daniel&Theary, and pushbrk quote for I-129F and AOS are quoted directly from the USCIS website. The visa fee is quoted directly from the State Department's website.

No, the I-129F filing fee was $455 at that time and is the only fee that went down.

there are many fees missing here:

passport in the country living

birth certificate

Police and Federal clearances in the country

other country specific documents

annulments or divorce paperwork if needed

children paperwork, medical if necessary

Medical was mentioned

Taxis, flights, hotels was mentioned.

marriage license fees

marriage ceremony fees

insurance (Health, dental, car, life)

do not just look at the fees in the K-1... this is what I looked at the first time... and missed a ton of other information.... look at the rest of it...

Yes, there will be other costs, which in most cases are dwarfed by travel costs BUT that's why the OP included, "not the total cost, but a break down of when fees become do ??? and where the money is sent "
