Designation of Certain Posts for Special Fee Payment Procedures

    This public notice adds additional posts, located in India and 
Vietnam, to those already designated by the Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Visa Services for two purposes related to the payment of immigrant 
visa fees. The first purpose relates to the revised procedure for 
payment of the fee for the processing of the application for an 
immigrant visa set forth in the Federal Register on September 8, 2000, 
(65 FR 54598). The effective date of that notice was stayed until 
January 1, 2001 by a public notice in the Federal Register of December 
14, 2000, (65 FR 78243).
    The second purpose is to identify the posts for which a fee 
pursuant to Item 61 of the Schedule of Fees for Consular Services (22 
CFR 22.1) will be assessed for advance review of and assistance with 
the Affidavit of Support that is required in certain immigrant visa 
cases. Notice of this fee requirement was added to the visa regulation 
pertaining to the Affidavit of Support requirement in 22 CFR 40.41(b), 
and was effective January 1, 2001.
    The Department will publish further public notices as additional 
designations are made.
