After NOA2

[Stefani 6]

Hey guys,

I have a quick question. We received our NOA2 yesterday night( text and email). Our hardcopy should be on its way. My question is regarding the visa fee payment. Since the visa fee will increase after september 12 can my fiance go pay that fee before that day. I am not sure if we have to pay the visa fee a few days before the interview or that wouldnt matter. Our interview should be before December 11.

Thanks in advance!

Hola, Congrats on the noa 2!!! The next step is for you to wait for a case number from the NVC, then the AOS and IV fees are billed to you. There is NO way to pay in advance you have to wait for them to bill you. You are getting closer, stay patient!!

My Case Number came 4 weeks after Noa2.

Is there an official list of fees after 9/12?

Is there an official list of fees after 9/12?

Yes, there is, and somehow people are misunderstanding the facts. Here is the link of the new Fees that will take effect after September 12, 2014: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/fees/fees-visa-services.html

There is no mention of the K visas at all. Also, each Embassy is different, for Brazilian embassy you do not pay until you go to your interview, so I don't understand why people keep misinforming others that they will pay in advance. That's not possible unless your case is already at your respective US Embassy's hands and they allow you to pay in advance of your interview.

Again, I have done research in all USCIS, State, and Embassy websites, and there is only mention of raising the fees for only a few types of Visas, which do not include any of the K visas.

People, relax, be helpful by giving information that you are 100% certain to be true. If you have no certainty, or if you read or heard it from someone else, do not give this information as fact until you prove it yourself. My fiancee was all confused and even worried about all these increases in Fees because she read it on here and people keep bringing it up. Please people, do your research before you try to help others on here. The point is to give people the right information and lead them in the right direction.

Sorry if I sound harsh, but it is important that people don't say the wrong information so that we all don't end up confused and even more agitated.

Thanks for your understanding, and I hope that I didn't offend anyone. If I did, my apologies, it definitely was not my intention. Just want to make sure people are providing others the correct information.

Congrats on your NOA2, I hope this journey continues to move along for all of us as smoothly as possible.

Best regards to all of you!

Holy eyeglasses, I guess I must be loosing my eyesight... How I missed that, I have no idea, but you are absolutely right. Nonetheless, I cannot find anywhere that specifies that you can pay in advance for K-1 visas. Maybe I missed that too,

My apologies for missing that, and thanks for pointing it out. I guess we'll have to pay up US$25 more.... Oy vey! :/

But hey, what's 25 more dollars compared to a lifetime of happiness with your loved one. I just hope they don't raise the fees for the I-485 (Adjustment of Status) that is already an abuse on people trying to legalize their status here in the US. But I guess we'll find out once we get to that point. I'm praying it stays the same.

Good luck to all!

Actually you can't. Not without packet 3 and readiness being sent.

Do not sweat missing it. I should have noted that read over it two or three times yesterday before i saw it. Something just told me it had to be in there somewhere.

I would also say you cannot pay in advance. As much as the USG likes taking our $$ they have to an account # to attach the funds to and I am assuming we will get that number when we get NOA2. My fiancee and would go ahead and pay all of the fees right now in advance if it would guarantee she would be here by Christmas or if it would move us on to NOA2
