I-485 and I-130 Concurrent Filing. What are the exact fees I should mail? Are there any other fees I should pay?

Anonymous Aug 4, 2014 3 views 2 answers

I recently got married and I am filing the I-130 Petition along with the I-485. My spouse qualifies for concurrent filing. My question is: along with the $985 fee + $85 biometric fee + I-130 $420 fee. Are there any other fee(s) I might not be aware of? By filing both concurrently, do I need to send 3 different money orders?

You can submit one payment for $1490 or break it up as you please. You should apply for Advance Parole and an EAD inasmuch as there is no additional fee and may come in handy even if you cannot anticipate it at this time. You do not need a reason to apply for Advance Parole for a marriage application even though the application wants to know travel details and reason for travel. You can ignore it. I strongly suggest that you use an attorney for this process. Interview a hundred lawyers if you must, but use one. Good luck.
