Congrats

My check was cashed this morning - at least they are quick about getting paid. Now, we'll just wait for the NOA-1 and biometrics. We're leaving town for a week in about a month, so I'm hoping my wife's biometrics won't be scheduled then. I guess we'll just try a walk-in if they are.

hope is before your trip..

Hello everyone,

Almost two years later and here we go again! We will be mailing the I-751 in a few days, I just want to jump in early, say hi!

I am very impressed that in less than two years, she passed all exams and received all licensed needed to start her new job, her first ever in the US, and right out of the gate, she will be making more money than I do, so I guess it is time for me to relax a bit, to start entertaining on taking jobs that are riskier (with higher reward of course), and down the road, be the stay-at-home dad.

I am excited with our future, and building our own American Dream--for her, it is making sure money is working to make money... Whatever that means... We love us.

Best wishes all!

We just sent ours out today. I've been sitting on it for a couple of weeks -- we just have so many things going on. But it feels good to have this done! (Well, it will feel better when it's REALLY done.)

Hi everyone, we're sending out my husband's packet next week and just wondering what most people are using for delivery (USPS, FEDEX, etc.)? We live in California, sending it to CSC.

I used USPS for his initial I130 without a problem, so I'm thinking using them again but overnighting it certified mail.

Good luck everyone

We used a USPS priority mail flat rate envelope. You can purchase the postage online (if you have access to a printer) and save a little money and get free delivery confirmation. We sent it on a Saturday and got delivery confirmation Monday morning. I think it might have to be USPS since it's a PO Box - not 100% sure about that, though. I don't think overnight is necessary especially since you live in the same state - it'll practically be overnight regardless.

Thank you, I hate that we had to wait till the last few weeks to mail, but we wanted to file our 2011 tax return so we can submit it with the package for evidence. I'm glad we live in the same state as CSC, for the fastest overnight delivery.

Sending it off on Monday, my husband has been camping with the Army...I forgot that he had to sign it LOL

I just sent my aplication to Vermont, pls add me to the list.

good luck everyone.

[Scott and Mhay 57]

we will be sending ours in next week hopefully. Although ours will take a different route since I am in the military and we are in italy for the next 4 years. We won't have a biometrics appointment since we have to get the fingerprints done on base and sent with the application. I will update here once I send everything in. Ours will be going to the California Service Center.
