Yep lived there 8 months after marriage. Do not go to children's its the worst. Go to Q-life. It's about N32K. Have heard stores childre's will rip you off and oher stuff. Stick with Q-life it has gotten the best reviews. We have a thread on it you would have to search its a few years old but still valid.

I had advised him to all Q-life when he was almost started freaking out about the price he had been quoted for medicals. I'll pass along your information too. Thank you ma. (L)

Where and when can I pay for the visa fee of $160 before the interview that I keep hearing about? Some people say it can be paid online or on day of interview. If I wanna pay before, where do I find this fee and when?

If you are referring to the $165 immigrant visa fee, which is to process the paperwork for the green card it can only be paid once the interview has been completed and approved it will be done through "elis."

Yes, that's the one. Reason I asked is cause I've seen posts before where it says you can pay before interview. Thanks For the answer. Whats Elis by The way?
