I read on VJ that I need to call the embassy and tell them that I plan to file DCF. Would you reccomend this? I have no idea where to begin. From what I understand I just file my 1 1-30 at the embassy and it is faster. What about the price/payment. Can I use a money order because I have the $420 fee in hand, in cash, and I not sure what to do with it. Thanks! Hope all is well!

Usually you can send in a money order, or pay cash at the embassy when you submit the papers, if yours is one where you hand the I-130 and accompanying documents in person. The "problem" with DCF is that every embassy has slightly different rules and policies as to how to file, so I added "Peru" to your title so hopefully other Peru DCF files will see it and reply.
