Filing Fees for AOS

 Share

Hello all!

 

I was double checking my fees for AOS before I write the check out and I am confused again! I keep seeing that if I send I-765 with form I-485 it is free and the total would only be $1,225. But when I use USCIS Fee Calculator, it's telling me the total is $1,635... Does anyone know if this the correct total or if their calculator doesn't automatically deduct certain forms when they are filed together?

 

Thanks in advance!

If you file them concurrently, you don't have to pay the filing fees for AP or EAD.  The calculator is just adding together the filing fees of all the forms and not taking concurrent filing into account.
