Does the AOS packet need to say anything specific on the envelope?

[stuckonyou 75]

This might be a somewhat stupid question, but I have a vague memory of my then fiancé writing something on the actual envelope back when we sent in the I-129F application in 2019. I think he wrote I-129F or something similar. Now we're about to send in the AOS application (hopefully tomorrow!) and I haven't read anything like that in the instructions, so does that mean that we just write the address and then when they open it they'll just see the different folders (AOS, EAD and Advanced Parole) that has the application name and what form it is on the front? Or do this has to be on the actual packet as well?

 

I'm probably overthinking, but I just remember that we wrote something on the packet last time... 😅

I also have another question about writing the check for the application.

 

Do we write one check that says $1,140 and another one for the biometrics fee with $85 or do we put those together on the same check and make it $1,225?

One check for the total.
