You can do either one. If you're sending a personal check, make sure the funds are secure.

Make payable to Department of Homeland Security

Make sure that when sending the forms they are postmarked prior to Nov. 23rd. The new fees will take into effect by then.

WASHINGTON - U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminds customers that its new fee schedule goes into effect Nov. 23, 2010. Applications or petitions postmarked or otherwise filed on or after this date must include the new fee, or they will be rejected.

USCIS published the new fee schedule in the Federal Register on Sept. 24, following a comprehensive review of public comments received after publication of the proposed rule this summer.

The new fee schedule increases application and petition fees by an average of about 10 percent but does not increase the naturalization application fee.
