Hello im in the same situation like you were. Can you please tell me if you had any troubles for sending the forms late?

How late are you? I don't have personal experience with this, but I've linked below a USCIS memo that basically suggests that:

  • Late filers should include a letter explaining the reason for the delayed filing
  • If it's a reasonable reason, USCIS officers should accept the reason provided it on its face
  • Accepting your late filing is at the discretion of the USCIS officer who reviews your case
  • If the officer doesn't see your reason as good-cause, sh/e issues an RFE

Good luck!
