Yes you can use money order
Gail WillJul 15, 2021
definitely can use money order. The only downside with using it is that you cannot tell when the money has been cashed.

Max amount of money order is $1000, so they will give you two orders ($1000 and $225). This will work perfectly, recently paid my I-485 fee, and it's been accepted.

@eric D thanks
@Gail Will oh I didn’t know that. thanks.
P OJul 15, 2021
@Dmitry kuznetsov Thanks please did you get your money order from the USPS office ?
After paying it do we include it in the documents we are sending and just keep the other part for ourselves.
I am just thinking if I’ll have to show proof of biometrics payment whenever I’m called fr biometrics
Gail WillJul 15, 2021
you'll definitely have to include the money order in your package
P OJul 15, 2021
@Gail Will thanks a lot.

I got money order in Kroger. I think you can get it at any grocery store, just go to customer service.
Gail WillJul 15, 2021
I know Publix do money orders. Not sure if you're in the area that has a publix grocery store
P OJul 15, 2021
@Dmitry thank you. We will check it out.
@Gail Will yes we have Publix close by too. Thanks a lot.

Yes you can pay with money order. i did.
And @Gail yes you can check if it’s cashed, I did.
Gail WillJul 15, 2021
Hi Joyce thanks for that input i guess the place i would have received the money order did not provide tracking.

you can tell when your money order is cashed by calling the financial institute you bought it through and follow the voice prompt where you type in the money order details and it tells you if it has been cashed or not. I used western union money order from kroger, had no issues
Joyce TJul 15, 2021
@Ekun exactly what I did. I used western union as well. @Gail There is a 800 number on it that you can call, they will ask for the amount of the money order and the transaction number that is on the receipt your tore from the money order.
Every financial institutions give you the opportunity to track your money order.
P OJul 15, 2021
@Joyce @Ekun thank you. I appreciate it.
Joyce TJul 15, 2021
You’re welcome. it comes with a receipt attached to it, make sure you tear it and keep the receipt part, it’s proof and also you will be able to track your money order.
Good luck
P OJul 15, 2021

it's better to used usps money order for an easy tracking.
Uros JovanovicJul 15, 2021
Walmart has money orders, 7 eleven also, but of you can track the usps money order, I would go with that one, that’s perfect
P OJul 15, 2021
