  • Spouse Base I-485 application fees

    I have had my form send back to me because my payment wasn't up to what they were asking. Does any one have idea of how much money order i should buy when am filling the following form all together for my wife who lives in the USA with me. 28yrs Old. And does anyone have idea on how to buy the money orders? Because i bought them together and am guessing that's the reason they sent my application back to me. If anyone has this information please help me on this. I need to send this form back to uscis asap. Thanks.

    Form I-485 | Adjustment of Status
    Form I-130 | Alien Petition
    Form I-130A | Supplemental info for Spouse Beneficiary
    Form I-131 | Travel Permit
    Form I-765 | Employment Authorization
    Form G-325A| Biographic Information
    Form I-693 | Medical Examination

    Please let me know how much i have to pay for each one and also if i have to buy the money order separately of i can always buy them together. Thanks once again

    You only need to pay for the I-130 which is $535 and the I-485 which is $1225. I used two separate checks when I sent in my application. You can buy the money orders from the post office and make sure to write in “Department of Homeland Security”, do not abbreviate it. And of course the I-693, you will pay the physician whatever they’re charging to do the medical.

      G-325A is not used anymore; the information is asked directly on the I-485. Also, I hope that as part of the I-485 you included I-864 Affidavit of Support and I-944 public charge questionnaire.

      This is my personal opinion and is not to be construed as legal advice.

        The forms you'd need are:

        I-130: $535 (Petition for alien relative)
        I-130A: $0 (Supplemental information for spouse beneficiary)
        I-131: $0 (Travel document aka advance parole)
        I-485: $1225 and that fee includes the biometrics fee. (Document to register permanent residence or adjustment of status)
        I-693: $X, these medical exams varies from doctor to doctor. Mine was $300 (Medical exam)
        I-765: $0 (Work permit)
        I-864: $0 (affidavit of support)

        G-325A is no longer needed, that has been replaced with the I-130A form.

        Check must be addressed to "Department of Homeland Security".

        Good luck!

              I-864 is needed unless you have earned 40 quarters (10 years) of Social Security credits (you can include credits earned by your spouse during the period of marriage).
