EAD FEE + Adjustment of Status

[krlosrb]

Hi guys.

I went to an attorney's office this week to ask some questions about the immigration process through marriage. He said that the fees are $1225 (I-485 adjustment of status) + $535 (I-130 petition).
Now, we are filing all the forms and we saw that there is a $410 fee for the employment authorization form. Is this fee necessary for processing?

Page 16 of the Form I-765 instructions state

NOTE: If you filed Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, as of July 30, 2007, and you paid the Form I-485 filing fee, no fee is required to also file a request for employment authorization on Form I-765. You may file the Form I-765 with your Form I-485, or you may submit the Form I-765 at a later date. If you file Form I-765 separately, you must also submit a copy of your Form I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt as evidence of the filing of Form I-485 as of July 30, 2007.
