How to Mail the I-485 packet to Chicago Lockbox

[InTransit 0]

My K1 fiancee, now wife, has to mail her I-485 packet (I-485, EAD, and Advanced Parole forms) to the Chicago lockbox. My question is how do I get a return receipt/delivery confirmation through the US postal service, if the destination address is a P.O. Box?

These are the two addresses they gave me:

For USPS deliveries:

USCIS

P.O. Box 805887

Chicago, IL 60680-4120

Can I get a return receipt/delivery conformation if mailed to a P.O. Box?

For Courier/Express Deliveries:

USCIS

Attn: AOS

131 South Dearborn - 3rd floor

Chicago, IL 60603-5520

I have no experience using couriers. Which delivery service should I use? We have fedex/kinkos and UPS nearby.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

We use (and I always encourage) USPS Priority with delivery confirmation - never wasted money trying to get signature confirmation because we probably wouldn't have gotten it.

USPS Priority is fast and reliable (all you really need to know is that it got there). IMO of course.

I just sent mine 12 days ago to the PO Box using USPS with Return Receipt, they got it in 2 days(I am only 180 miles from Chicago) and I got the return receipt in 4 days signed with a Stamper: USCIS CHICAGO LOCK BOX. They cashed my check on the 8th.

We used Fedex 2 day so we could track it easily online. We liked seeing it get from place to place. I can't remember for certain, but I think someone had to sign for it when it got there.
