Embassy of the United States Manila, Philippines

Immigrant visa application fees may be paid in cash, traveler's check, U.S. Postal Money Order, or major credit cards at the Embassy's consular cashier if these have not been paid to the National Visa Center (NVC) in the U.S.  Payments at the Embassy may be in Philippine pesos at the prevailing Embassy exchange rate.  Each applicant, regardless of age, will require a separate fee payment.  Fees are non-refundable for applications submitted and processed.   

Applicants for K visas on the other hand, pay a US$240 nonimmigrant visa application fee. The application fee for nonimmigrant visas must be paid prior to scheduling a visa interview appointment.  There are three ways to pay the K visa application fee:

a)    Cash payment at any Bank of the Philippine Island (BPI) branch. Please note that beginning September 3, 2012, K (fiancé(e) and K3) visa applicants are required to present a U.S. visa application deposit slip to pay the K visa fee.  Before going to the bank, K (fiancée and K3) visa applicants must print the applicable U.S. visa application deposit slip , which can be downloaded from the online appointment website: http://ustraveldocs.com/ph/ph-niv-paymentinfo.asp, and take it to the bank to pay the fee.

There is an expiration date on the deposit slip.  Bank agents will not accept payments based on expired deposit slips. Upon payment, the bank will issue a receipt.  This receipt cannot be replaced.  Applicants will not be able to schedule an appointment without the receipt number.

b)    Online payment bill option provided by BPI to their clients

c)    Online payment through Bancnet.
