I was browsing the USCIS web site in the "Check Filing Fees" page, and noticed that the fee for form I-131 as $305 and it mentioned that there was NO biometrics fee. However, in the Instructions for completing Form I-131, it clearly states the need for the biometrics fee. My question is what is the exact amount to be paid knowing that a biometrics fee is a must? Is it $305 or $385?
I have one more question to ask, do they also take a picture along the finger print process. Thanks for your input.

as much as i know the process fee is $400 !!

$305 is the fee for the application. $80 is the fee for the boimetrics. If you don't have to do biometrics (for children) you only have to pay $305. If you have to do biometrics (for adult) you have to pay $385. You can pay by this amount my a single money order.
