Hi guys,

Think I may have made a error.

So I have every ready and packaged up ready to ship out in the morning. Doing what I guess is a triple check last minute. Reading through the I-130 instructions, I notice there is an option to file in Phoenix too. I live in California, and its telling me if I live there, to file in Phoenix.

Problem is, I have used the Chicago address for ALL my paperwork, and for the box with everything in too!

#######!

Does this have to be sent to Phoenix for sure, or will the Chicago address still be OK?

Grrr never mind, just read more closely. As I am filing for I-485 too, it has to be sent to Chicago, which appears to be a good thing, as thats where its all addressed to go!!
