Thanks Thanks Thanks :help:

hi. we sent our package to Lewisville because we used an express mail through UPS. but if you choose the USPS then u may send it to Dallas,Tx but if you will use USPS expressmail or other courier like Fedex or UPS (which only took a day for the USCIS to receive our package) then u may send ur packet to Lewisville.

maybe you are referring to service center instead of filling location? ur packet might be send to CSC.. but again when sending the I129F packet there are two address where u can send it. either in Lewisville or Dallas.. depends if expressmail or not..

ur filling location depends on whether u want to send ur packet through expressmail or not. :) Lewisville (expressmail) or Dallas (if USPS)

ur service center might be CSC. but USCIS will notify you where they sent ur packet..

thanks too. :D u can visit our page anytime. :D

yes, once u receive ur NOA1, that's when u will know where they forwarded ur case, i would say mail ur packet through expressmail (Lewisville) to be safe and u can track the delivery of ur packet too. it will just cost a bit but makes u worry free knowing that ur packet is in good hands. ask for a delivery receipt too. ours arrived at Lewisville in just one day. :) so yes u can put Lewisville instead of csc or vsc :)

You can use the Dallas Lockbox address, Lewisville express mailing address, or no address at all. The address is not a requirement for the letters of intent. It only needs to contain the important statement of being willing and free to marry within 90 days of US entry and an original signature.

Would not matter if they used the CSC or VSC address either. Like I said, there is not a requirement for an address on the letters of intent or the cover letter either. The example forms show the addresses as a formality for the formatting of a letter.

yes.it is for formality and to whom you are addressing the letter. I should say this would just depend to OP whether she will put any address on the letters or not.. :)

Yes, it just depends on what you want to put. Technically the adjudicator of your case is at either the CSC or VSC so that is who they would be addressed to, and used to be that way when the petitions used to get mailed directly to the CSC or VSC, BUT it doesn't really matter so you can choose which address you like or put none at all. Not a big deal and will not make or break anyone's case.

yes, before, petitions are mailed directly to csc or vsc. now, it's just up to OP what she would prefer to do.
