So, I just wanted to check the address I have in front of me. I obviously grabbed this from the USCIS website, but looking through various persons cover letters, everyone seems to have a slightly different address.

This is the address I have on my cover letters, and the address I am about to write on the front of the package to send is:

USCIS

Attn: FBAS

131 South Dearborn - 3rd Floor

Chicago, IL,

60603-5517

Thank you!

Cant speak for the rest of the country, but regular mail from Denver to Chicago only takes 2 days to arrive (see the timeline in my sig) and so really, the Express Mail option only saves me 24 hours in time difference (not a big deal when you consider the length of the process anyway) and it also costs significantly more. I believe my package cost about $8-$9 to send.
