Did i ever say the opposite? I know that. Some people do not want to go money order route because they think only the personal check or credit card payment can be tracked to see if they've been cashed. I'l just making it aware one can see if usps money order has been chased.

I’m going to do the money order route! I feel it’s the best option! Thank you so much!

I would still go for money order.

 

Basically, with money order, the money has been withdrawn from your account and is being held by WU or whatever and just need to be deposited in the next account by recipient. This isn't the case with personal checks, which becomes disastrous should USCIS decide to withdraw "whenever they feel like" and unfortunately, you don't have funds in it. When that happens, your application gets rejected and you've lost time. Currently, it's taking USCIS 2-3 months to receive applications, cash checks and issue receipts. 

 

You can also get cashier's checks free from your bank. 

 

MO are less than a $1 where I am at.

 

MO has tracking too, if that's what you're worried about. 

 

 

 

Hi There!

I will be filling for AOS and will go with MO option.

Question I have, I can see on USCIS site the name of payee but NOT the address. For MO I need address for uscis. Should I put lockbox address for it or is there a specific address which Im missing? 
 

Please advise!

Thanks.

You don't need any USCIS address. The address on the MO is yours, not USCIS'. See attached 

 

All you need to do is make sure it says U.S. Department of Homeland Security not USCIS nor DHS. That's the most important. 

Additionally, save the bottom part of MO for your tracking.

One more thing, MO are capped at $1000, is it okay to send multiple MO’s then? I need to send $1225 for AOS and $535 for I130.

has anyone done this by sending 3 MO’s? Like splitting $1225 MO into 2 MO’s of $1000 and $225?

 

Please advise. Thank you once again!

Yes you can split. Ideally speaking, I'd split into two to avoid extra MO charge i.e $1000 & $760. 3 splits will still do. Most people just do 2. I did 2. No issues at all.

Just do a personal check and be done with it, don't mess with MO, they're a hassle.
