I-130 sent

[armstrob 0]

Hey guys, just a quick question. I sent my I-130 for my Canadian spouse on Saturday, August 21, via USPS registered mail. Which btw, i'm starting to regret, as i was unaware it would take so much longer to arrive. When i checked the usps site with my registered number, i see this:

We attempted to deliver your item at 9:05 am on August 27, 2010 in CHICAGO, IL 60699 and a notice was left. You may pick up the item at the Post Office indicated on the notice, go to www.usps.com/redelivery, or call 800-ASK-USPS to arrange for redelivery. If this item is unclaimed after 15 days then it will be returned to the sender. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.

I'm worried as to what has happened with my I-130 package. Has anyone else sent via registered mail? If anyone can tell me what's going on here, I would appreciate it greatly.

The correct address to mail I-130 to Chicago Lockbox is:

If your address is correct, there is no problem.

Thanks for the fast reply. The address i sent it to is:

USCIS

P.O. Box 804625

Chicago, IL 60680-4107

I sent it via usps, which is what the site said. I'm just concerned as to why a notice was left, and it says delivery was unsuccessful. Is it because i sent it registered mail, and a signature is required?

Yes, signature is required and it might delay little bit.

Thank you very much loto, I appreciate it. I became so worried when i saw that. I triple checked the address before i sent it, so i knew it was correct. I wish i wouldn't have sent it via registered now. I guess i was just concerned about it being lost, or falling into the wrong hands.

It should be accepted. But I think their preferred method of delivery is USPS Priority mail/express and courier methods.

Also, there is a slight processing delay at Chicago Lockbox. Wait for 2 to 3 weeks for the NOA1 and monitor if the check is cashed or not.
