Just finished the paperwork and organizing the packet today. Will be sending it off to USCIS tomorrow. This was more of a pain than the I-129f packet, or maybe it's just been so long that my memory is wrong...

I know what you mean! Felt like a lot more faff getting all the supporting evidence together for 3 different applications! Glad to have it be on its way, my package should be arriving in Chicago tomorrow!

Getting ahead of myself-when and if you have an interview, do you go to the local office or do they spring a surprise attack on you at your house?

I'm pretty sure it'll be in an office, though I think that USCIS has the right to check your spouse at your home address if they want to though it's extremely rare. I remember reading about it when I was looking into address changes since we might be moving during the time my green card is being issued...Denver is one of the slowest offices ;_;

I agree, and I also feel like the hardest part was organizing all the separate applications in one package!

Yes. At least that's what the I-485 instructions say to do for K-1 visas: just send in the vaccination supplement, not the entire medical report.

I hope so because that's what I sent too! There was a box left unfilled that the nurse said would be complete when immigration get the original...I always doubt the process when I get told such things. Tick it NOOOWWW!!

Our package arrived on Thursday! Hoping to get an email confirmation sometime next week.

Just mailed out my AOS package to USCIS Chicago Lockbox. When I went to the post office I indicated the zip code as 60680-4120 but the post office put zip code 60680-4187 with delivery confirmation next day guranteed. AS long as I addressed to USCIS PO BOX 805887, Chicago, IL 60680-4120 it will get to them correct?

I had a similar worry, but when I asked apparently the last set of numbers change a lot and it's the first part that counts. Mine was received on Thursday so I'm sure it's ok!

Got our email/text today saying the application has been received at the lockbox! Got about 6 at once for some reason, maybe there was a glitch o_O. Glad it's got there and it's been seen :).

I hear a lot of people getting like 6-8 emails and texts when they respond. No idea why though. =)

Yup I received about 3 emails for each part of the application too.
