What is my spouse required to pay? Dollar shortage in the country

[devusr 41]

My wife's country is in an economic crisis (Sri Lanka) with dollar shortage. Banks will give only limited amount of dollars. I can still remittance her money which gets converted to the local currency.

 

Is there any fees required from my wife's side that she is required to pay the US embassy in Sri Lanka? Can I pay those from my side in the US?

Perhaps a small fee, plus the medical exam but both can be paid in local currency.

Great, thank you!

Way down the road, but a good idea to have a little amount during travel.
