Fee - Rejected

[Vrubel 0]

I have paid online Affidavit of Support (AOS) Fee ( 88 $ ) on December 15. The payer recieved an email with the receipt same day. Online, the status was "In process". Afther 2-3 days the status was "paid" and appeard available IV Application Processing Fees (230 $ - not paid yet). But now the Affidavit of Support (AOS) Fee status is "Rejected". I've sent an e-mail at them but no answer for the moment [ it's Christmas ]. Can anyone help me? Thx.

There is not fee for the I-864 Affidavit of Support.

I made the mistake of using a website I thought was legit to file this form online and paid $100. It was a scan. All I was able to do was print out a fill out form that I could do myself and knew how. The I-864 is to be included with alone with other forms.

Like this. My fiance was applying for a b-2. She took the I-864 with required evandance to the interview. They kept form. For K-1 she will do the same thing. Take new I-864 form to interview.

Directly from USCIS web site:

Fees: There is no fee when filed with USCIS or abroad with the Department of State (DOS). DOS does charge a fee when this form is filed in the U.S. For more information, please visit the Department of State website.

And I accesed the specified wep page and how you can see it is not a scam web page, it is secured. So it is a 88 $ fee and it appears "rejected", Why?

I would contact USCIS directly about this. If you search for the form on google "Form I-864" if that is the form you are talking about you will see where I'm getting the information from. Email can easily be forged even the from can be. Not long ago I got a mess that even I was confused how they made it look like it came from me. My normal email address. I've been on the internet before most people know it was even around. I know how it all works and know the ways to read the headers of email. I'm still confused how the forged all the headers to get it to look like I sent it when it could not have come from me.

Very things. Like I said and here is the link: http://www.uscis.gov/i-864 according to USCIS this form does not have a fee. If it is real then the fee must be for something else.

The problem is your bank. Check the bank routing number or use another account.

I guess we are talking about different forms then. I went to the address in the message and yes it all looks correct and there you can see there is a fee. They are at least two Affidavit of Support forms that I know of. As a suggestion please include the form number when talking about a form.
