Got the info the CSC wanted. Should I return it using "Return Receipt" or some other method? I'd like to make sure they got it.

Thanks!

You can use a bigger envelope. Personally to be sure, my soon to be husband(yay!) taped the return envelope onto a bigger one. Otherwise the documents couldn't quite fit in there. We got approved in some weeks from USCIS getting the RFE back, and it was at CSC too.

K1 process, October 2010 > POE, July 2011

I-129F approved in 180 days from NOA1 date. (195 days from filing to NOA2 in hand)

Interview took 224 days from I-129F NOA1 date. (241 days from filing petition until visa in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until POE: 285 days

Click timeline or "about me" for all details.

AOS process, December 2011 > July 2012

EAD/AP Approval took 51 days from NOA1 date to email update. (77 days from filing until EAD/AP in hand)

AOS Approval took 206 days from NOA1 date to email update. (231 days from filing until greencard in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until greencard in hand: 655 days

Thanks. Did he use a method of tracking the envelope to make sure they got it?

I'd like to say yes to the signed for :) But he forgot, unfortunately. The point of the tracking is to know that they received it since they only give you 30 days(I reckon) to reply and they'll allow up to 60 days to review it so you'd probably be more relaxed knowing it's in the hands of USCIS before time runs out. If you use Express it'll include tracking and signed for - my fiancé used priority and forgot the extra services.

I've always used (and recommended) USPS Priority with delivery confirmation.

Thank you!
