I guess you will need to pay coffee money to get it expedited.

Oh. Anyone know if we have to bring a new i-864 form with signature or can it be copy of what was sent it to NVC for our interview?

I emailed the senator and in basic I was very cordial and humble. We were looking for movement and a reasonable time line not jump the line so to speak.

Nah you pay coffee money - grounds for fraud and subversion of the system. I for one want no part of that - do it the right way or no way even if the system is painfully slow and inefficient.

Assuming you paid the IV fee then there would be no additional fee. You still need to pay the green card fee either at POE or on the Ellis Website.
