That sounds about right you send two petitions one for her mother and one for her father plus payment for each. I dont believe you screwed up but if you want to know for certain you can always refer to uscis.gov for clarification :thumbs:

You did the right time...

Seperate checks are advised by uscis incase an application is deficient, it should not affect processing of other applications, a check cant be sent to the bank to withdraw a difference, it has to be exact amount....

Goodluck..

one check for each petition

but i am confused....are you the petitioner for your inlaws?

No, my wife is. I just asked the question on her behalf. For a second I thought that only 1 check 420 would work for both the application. And I sent in 820 in total.
