Starts.......a "tad" confused about why I had to send my package (I130 and I485) to Chicago Lockbox, if they are just going to transfer elsewhere? Sent to Chicago as per the USCIS website for our type of case.

So now just going to wait and see what happens from here.

Thanks to VisaJourney I am hoping our packages were done right and no delays smile.png

What exactly are you applying for, and what kind of visa are you adjusting from? I assume you are not adjusting from a K1 visa, so you might want to ask your questions in the right forum in order to get better replies. Good luck!
