Which mail carrier do you use when sending a confidential packet to the Immigration Sevice Center?

I need to mail my application to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. I don’t want my document to be lost because it contains confidential information. (I live in U.S.A.)

Does anyone have an experience mailing a big document packet to the immigration service? The problem is it has to be sent to the government P.O. Box. There is no physical address. Which mail carrier is the most reliable and which one do you guys use? How do I get a confirmation to make sure the packet is delivered?

Thanks.

I've always used good ol' USPS to send anything to the USCIS. I also send it certified mail with signature required so I know when it was received and who signed for it when delivered.

Thanks! I will check on it, certified mail with signature required via the U.S.mail. How long does it take to get it delivered?

It can take from 3-5 business days. If you want to have it delivered faster, you can use Overnight Delivery and it works the same way except faster.
