Any payment after IR-1 Interview is approved?

[Deejunx 1]

Hi All,

First of all, I"m happy to share that my interview was approved last Wednesday at the Jakarta US Embassy. It was a "partial" approval, however, because my marriage certificate translation was not complete. The CO that I spoke to was kind enough to let me email her the amended page and she will then process the approval. In the same afternoon, I managed to go to the translator's office and got the corrected page to be scanned and sent to the embassy. Called the Embassy the next day and they have indeed received the email and my application is "OK", passport will be mailed this week.

Anyway, all I received after the interview was a sheet of paper titled "Request for Further Information, Immigrant Visa" along w/ the detailed content. The CO cancelled my US B1/B2 Visa in front of me and said "have a safe trip!".

1. My IR-1 Visa is pretty much approved, right? CEAC status still reads as AP

2. Was there anything I have to pay immediately after the interview? She did not give me any instructions to pay anything else. As I remember, people would need to pay a few once the interview is done?

I have checked on the Embassy Review section for Indonesia, and no one mentioned about paying anything though.

Thanks

Anyone can pay the USCIS Immigrant Fee for you. For example, a family member, friend, employer, attorney, or accredited representative can pay the fee for you as long as they have your Alien Registration Number (A-Number) and DOS Case ID.
