My attorney mailed my documents to the NVC using usps, but she mailed it to the address for express mail carriers, not the address for usps as shown on the picture. 
 

is this going to be an issue? Or delay the review of my documents?

It is Sunday, and time for our hilarious Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

================================================================
THESE ARE IMPORTANT

 

How to live to be 100:  Live to 99 and then be very careful!

 

All of our visitors bring us happiness.  Some by coming, some by going.

 

"Doctor, my child swallowed a roll of film!  What should I do?"

"Let's wait and see if anything develops."

 

An armed man ran into a real estate agency and shouted, "Nobody move!"

 

I asked the anesthesiologist if I could administer my own anesthetic.  He said, "Sure -- knock yourself out!"

:P

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

No, that won't be an issue. USPS can deliver to a physical address or to a PO Box, courier services can only deliver to physical addresses and not PO Boxes.

 

 

Contradictions without citations only make you look dumb.

Based on completion of three of 3 years requirement by Feb 2024, I am planning to apply for citizenship by November 2023. Do i need continue stay of 18 months on greencard in USA for applying citizenship ? I went to India twice since my VAWA greencard approved in Feb 2021. Can I still apply for citizenship by this November?

You still need to meet the requirements to file.
 

VAWA only allows to file for citizenship under the 3 year rule based on marriage to a US Citizen, nothing else.

Why?

Whenever something is in the process is not followed exactly => USCIS gets confused => this causes delays (not always, but many times).

 

If USCIS didn't need to differenciate between USPS mail and express carrier mail, they would have used one address for both. But something is baked into their process, relying on this difference. It would be fair to think there may be a delay associated with mail being sent to a wrong location.

Wednesday means that it's time for our hilarious, approval-evoking* Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

     *that is, if correlation = causation

================================================

MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS

 

A man burst into a doctor's office.  He had a banana in his left ear, a carrot in his right ear, and a cucumber up his nose.  "What's the matter with me, Doc?" he cried.

 

"You're not eating properly," said the doctor.

:P
