Frequently Asked Questions - Immigrant Visa Unit
What are the fees for immigrant visas?
Immigrant Visa applicants must each pay an application fee of $355 (or Rs.17,040/-) as well as a supplemental fee of $45 (or Rs.2,160/-) for a total fee of $400 (or Rs.19,200/-). If these fees have already been paid to the National Visa center (NVC) in the U.S. by the petitioner, the applicant does not have to pay them a second time. If only the $335 fee was paid to the NVC, the applicant must pay the $65 (or Rs.3,120/-) supplemental fee at the time of the interview.
