My wife has an interview in the month of march.

I have two simple questions:

1) When will she get passport back once she will pass in the interview ? is it on the same day or a next day. We have selected pickup option from VFS office of Mumbai.

2) When do we need to pay $165 immigration fee ? is it after she will pickup passport from the VFS office and before leaving to USA ?

Thanks for your help

1 - Sometimes you can pick up same day or next day. It depends up to their work load.

2 - Yes! That is correct.

2. $165. You can pay this fee either before leaving for USA OR after arriving to US. You will not receive physical green card until you pay it.

I noticed there is a link that you can pay this fee online? Can someone from US pay this fee online after the interview while the beneficiary is still in India? Do they ask any proof of fee paid from beneficiary when leaving India or entering US?

Here is a link to pay the fee online: https://www.pay.gov/paygov/forms/formInstance.html?agencyFormId=40850201

Has anyone tried this?
