Do I have to pay petition fees on each child included on K1 visa

[Kirkk 0]

I cannot clarify this.  If my fiancé has 2 children  listed, do I pay 535$ of or 1605$ when I file.  My assumption is that I have to pay DS-160 costs on all as well as cost associated with biometrics and AOS .

Only cost of ds-160

You are jumbling the various steps into one.  For clarity:

 

I-129F for your fiance.  One form, one fee.  List fiance's children in that form.

 

After I-129F approval and sent to embassy (about 14-24 months from now):  DS-160 plus medical for each person, K1 and K2 categories for the DS-160 fees

 

After fiance and kids arrive in the US:  Marriage and related costs, within 90 days of arrival.

 

After marriage:  I-485 set of forms (I-131, I-765, I-864, etc) and fees for each.

 

 

OR:

 

Marry and file I-130 and fees for each.  Less expensive overall.

So each one has their own DS-160 fees and medical fees for each one.
