Can anyone tell me how I can book my interview and pre- pay at the same time? It says cash only but I thought I could pay it as I book, is this possible? I posted what the sheet below says ..but im confused. I was told this could be done as I book? Can anyone advise? Thanks

Copied and pasted from pkt4

If you have previously paid all fees due to the National Visa Center, there will be no additional fees to pay on the day of the interview. If you have not paid fees at the National Visa Center, please be prepared to pay the following fees on the day of your interview.

I-130 immigrant petitions filed in Canada: $420.00 US for each applicant.

IV fee for each family member (spouse/children) added to a petition: $325.00 US for family based applications Employment based: $345.00 US.

SIV cases: $205.00 US.

DV cases: $330.00 US for each applicant.

K (fiancé/e) visas: $265.00 US, paid in cash only.

All fees may be paid in US dollars or the Canadian dollar equivalent. We accept cash and credit cards only.

Please note if a person is found ineligible to receive a visa, the application fee cannot be refunded.

You do not pre pay. You were will pay the fee at the embassy on the day of your interview. This is standard for k1 visas.

You will pay the fee at embassy on day of interview. The embassy should send you the interview time and date. Normally k1 do not book their own interviews from what I have seen. Once you submit your readiness form they will set your interview time. From my experience with London.

When we booked our interview for Montreal, the next screens after scheduling the interview gives the option to pre-pay. We didn't pay anything at at the interview.

Okay so I got my interview booked. I was able to select a date (not a time) for interview, dates were very few...but for those at Montreal ...I was also able to pre-pay that visa fee. It asks rite on the application. Thank you to ALL who offered helpful advice.
