Hello!

We're sending everything together for an AoS from a M-1 Visa. So all the forms: i-130 (+ documents and stuff), i-485 (plus documents and stuff), i-131 and i-765 - in the same package.

These are the two checks we're planning to send in:

1. Check in the amount of US$420 for I-130

2. Check in the amount of US$1,070 for I-485 plus biometric fee

That's the right amount right? I ahve doublechecked everywhere but wondered if there are any hidden fees we're missing.

Also, should you include a cover letter for EVERY form?

Thanks!!

The amounts are correct (http://www.uscis.gov/fees is always current).

One single cover letter for the entire packet is sufficient.
