All,
I mailed off my petition 2 days ago to Texas Service Center via USPS priority mail with delivery confirmation. Quite a substantial package that I myself prepared over the last 3 weeks. I included plenty of proofs of meetings, because between my fiancee and I, we visited each other 4 times within the last year. I also included about 30 emails (choose about one email each month for the last 2 years), 80 double-sided chat logs (choose about 2 chat logs each month since we saved them more than a year ago), copies of a handful of handwritten letters, a dozen pages of phone records, and about 25 photos from the 4 trips. Together it was about 200 pages hole-punched at the top, tabbed and fastened together with ACCO fastener.
I hope with our diligence with paperwork and the strength in our relationship, we will reunite sometime in the later part of 2007. Thank you to all who helped me with the preparation, and I will frequently be reading posts on this site, helping if I could, and seeking help from all of you.
Just now did a tracking on the package. It says item arrived, notice left, item will be re-delivered or picked up at the local post office. Strange. Why didn't they just leave the package in the PO Box? Too big? My package was inside a priority mail box, the USPS box itself. Anybody ran into this?
Again, nice to be with the VJ community. Thanks to all.

They get more than a few petitions daily so it won't get left in a PO Box but a large bin, they pick the packages up daily, or in this case next Monday. You know that it is at the post office and not lost. Don't worry too much.
Also you may not get NOA1 for at least 2 weeks, the case will get forwarded to California. Texas is the correct place to send the petition, but they don't process I-129F cases they send them to California to be processed.

Just now while reading random posts I realize that I didn't sign the G-325A supplement listing my additional residences and employments as others have suggested on this site. Is it critical? Well, there's not much I can do now except waiting for USCIS to tell me they approve the petition or RFE. Hope it's the former.

While I think it is simply a good practice, nowhere in the instructions indicate that the supplemental information needs to be signed. Nothing you can do anyways.....
