The visa fee is $165 but you dont can pay that after your visa is approved and advisable to pay the fee before immigrant's travel to USA. But this is all for CR1/IR1 if you filed under any other category like K1 or DCF the process is diffeent

since I am getting responses quickly, I'm going to take advantage! haha! :) a very serious question... again..

is there a visa fee that my husband should worry about? how much is it and did I already pay for that? I know you're thinking, "How should I know?" Well I don't either.. lol

but I am worried. I have read everywhere and it doesn't state how much the visa fee is and if there is one at all (I'm sure there is). It did mention (somewhere) to take some money to the interview in case it hasn't been paid. I'm thinking this is the visa fee? but how come it is so confusing for me. It never said how much the fee is.

so confused!!!

I know I have asked this question before but I never had any replies So please, help out a sister in need :)

Per your timeline you are CR1/IR1 then you are good. No fee required during the interview. :)

are you absolutely sure?!?? I'm still confused because I can't find anything when I search for "New Delhi embassy visa fee". But when I type in "New Delhi embassy visa fee $165" something comes up!

I would be so happy if there is not a fee... lol

thank you for your quick reply!! :)

I hope you did not misunderstand me..There is a fee of $165 for processing of your plastic green card. This fee is applicable after visa approval only and you can pay it later online

Passport, Interview letter, Photographs, DS-260 Confirmation sheet (Necessary as they will stamp biometrics confirmation on this sheet) and clean hands :P

what to take to the biometrics appointment?

I don't mind the fee at all. I just want my husband here! Lol. He already did his fingerprints and all that. And he took all that you said. Not sure about the stamp. I'll ask him again. His interview is 16 hours away...

When we found out the date for the interview, time stood still. Now that it's super close, time is flying!

I encourage everyone to get your documents and everything you need a few days before your interview. Then every day before the interview, go through them with a fresh mindset and see if you need any more. I did that and bothered the ####### out of my husband with my non-stop talking.

Please pray for us! We have been waiting for this day for 1 year and 6 months.
