Actually I had a further look to what they sent me and they put a copy of the Fedex package tag.

There are 2 dates on it. the 22th in tiny and a big one: 23rd. I believe Fedex really processed my package only after midnight...that is why.

I should go there and ask them to pay the extra fees and delivery for me, 170 USD more. And once again, I asked twice the girl about the postmarked date...

OMG, I'm so sorry to hear it. I havent got anything from them yet.

You have different receipt numbers for the different forms you filed. I think, if it works, any of them should work. We aren't able to get updates right now because it can't find any of our case numbers. Apparently this is normal.

@ Kittyfang-- Any news on your RFE?

No news yet. I called USCIS the day I got the RFE. I spoke to what I think is a tier 2 person and she told me that I they will send a letter of explanation in the next 5 days. So, I am waiting for this.

I cannot think of what the problem could be. The only possible thing would be that my doctor's secretary used a copy of the medical that I didn't signed.

Since I can't imagine what else would be wrong, I went to my doctor and got a second copy. But I am wondering if they will accept THAT one. Here's the issue. It's a photocopy, but MY signature and the doctor's are real (or so I'm told. it's black ink, so when I pointed out that the doctor's signature looked copied, the receptionist said that it was just the way his pen wrote). Everyone over there told me that it will be fine. I'm thinking "well, they do this a lot, so they should know".
