This was a bit confusing and I hope to offer others the benefit of my experience.

The online questions and answers are not as obvious as filling out the form directly.  I suggest to print or have the offline form available when filling out the questions to generate the online form.  Things line space for address information on the online questions may truncate that information when populated into the generated form.  As such I also suggest that once you think you have filled it out completely to review the submission where a 'sample' of the online form will be generated.  Check that and modify your answers as required.

The other gotcha was that after submission I waited for a week for the NOA1 but later when I logged into my USCIS online account I realized that my receipt was generated the same day as submission and that the information about the service center was at the bottom of the PDF receipt viewable from the online account.

Finally,  when paying for the application I did ACH transfer from a US Bank account which I'm lucky to have considering I live overseas.  Not sure how a international Credit card would have worked out.   ACH was quick, efficient and free.
