    with the exception of Immigrant Visa application processing fees paid
    domestically to the National Visa Center (NVC), which will be effective as
    of the date of billing.


    Fees that decrease are not refundable. If an applicant pays a visa fee
    before September 12, 2014 and that fee decreases, the Embassy will not give
    a refund.


    For non-immigrant fees subject to an increase, the amount already paid will
    be accepted within 90 days after the new rule go into effect.

    of State and the US Embassy to Armenia
