Can attorney of record pay for USCIS fees instead of client preparing checks?
Can the law firm/attorney of an intending immigrant pay for the USCIS fees (payable to Dept. of Homeland Security) using client trust account? Client will be filing numerous USCIS forms needing separate fees. Client simply wants to pay his lawyer all the fees required and want attorney pay USCIS in his behalf. Is this OK?
Yes they can do it and they generally do it.
The attorney keeps a separate client trust account for client expenses to cover all the fee and other necessary expenditure. Even if you decide to do it yourself, you can still get your application reviewed by an Attorney.
