Ah!! brilliant..... all the best. It took me forever to send mine, lol.

Can't wait to have you on board

Question, did you send your packet to

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

P.O. Box 805887

Chicago, IL 60680-4107

We are sending I-130 & I-485 concurrently so I think this is the right address but I want to double check

[laurelmike 0]

Ah!! that's the address on the Form I-130. The USCIS agent I spoke to over the phone said that if filing a concurrent application of I-130 and I-485 to use the address on the Form I-485. You should read page 6 of the I-485 Instructions

There are 2 addresses on the Form I-485:

For Postal Service: USCIS

P.O.Box 805887

Chicago IL 60680-4120

For Courier/express deliveries: USCIS

Attn: AOS

131 South Dearborn- 3rd Floor

Chicago, IL 60603-5520

I sure hope I mailed it to the right address

They almost look identical except for the zip code! BTW, do you know what they mean by courier mail? Would that get it there faster?

The courier address should be used if you decide to send your application via Fedex, UPS or the Postal Service Express mail (overnight delivery)

Hi!!! I just sent my application this morning by Fedex for overnight delivery. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I used the different address that was mentioned above though. I used what was on I-130 instruction. I had the address with Attn: AOS right before I sent package, but at the last minute I changed to the following:

USCIS

Attn: FBAS

131 South Dearborn - 3rd Floor

Chicago, IL 60603-5517

The instruction says if the form I-130 is being filed concurrently with Form I-485, submit both forms concurrently to the address above.

But both are the same address, just differenrt attn: and last 4 digit of zip code, so hope October will be a blessed month!!

Hey ReeRee, nice to have you on board.

Now the wait begins.....

You are right, I noticed it says so on the Form I-130 too. Well, I'm certain that there are loads of others who sends theirs to that address too.

Yeah..... hope October's a blessed month for all of us

Yeah that is why I was confused too, since the I-130 & I-485 list different addresses (well, different zip code). Someone told me on a different post to use the one from the I-485 but I'm not sure if it matters. Might check with my lawyer on this one!

Hi Km24, nice to have you aboard Must have felt great to finally ship off the application, lol.

Have you a got a delivery notice yet and who signed for it?

Well, if you sent your application to same address as ReeRee, then I guess RebeccaAndPhil have nothing to worry about. My guess is that they all get delievered at same place

[km24 0]

ReeRee! So you sent the application October 5 too?! hehehe.. Same here but I guess my package will arrive tomorrow since I didn't choose the "express" thingy since it's quite expensive.

So keep me posted!

laurelmike... At last! for more than a month preparing for the forms, requirements and the fees. Whew!

I wanna thank those people who helped me. I posted a lot of threads here asking questions regarding some items on the application forms. Good thing I've found this forum.

Yep, I am just being so inpatient right now, I know I won't get NOA for 6 - 10 days, but some people receive in a few days too.

And many thanks to VJ because I didn't use a lawyer so we filled out everything ourselves and there were a lot of confusions while completing application, but VJ members past experiances helped me clear all of my questions. Even if I get RFE, I just hope it will go smoothly.... Ahh I am worrying too much again, think positive!!!

I will keep you posted on my progress!!
