This is something I was actually wondering about myself. I know i'm going to send it overnight return receipt but wasn't sure if it mattered if it was USPS or FedEx.

I tried to send mine via Fedex (there's a fedex/kinko's within walking distance of my apartment and I went there to make copies anyway)...they said they can not ship to a PO Box and the guy said "especially because it's a government PO box...they REALLY like USPS."

Mine went to CSC...does VSC have an actual address or does it go to a PO box? And it's very possible that the guy was just confused...he didn't seem quite certain of what his job was.

I just checked for myself...VSC has an actual street address. CSC goes to a PO box. So you would be ok sending it via Fedex to them.

Waiting for international mail does suck. You'll get it soon, though! I wish that I had started getting my packet all ready while I was waiting for his stuff...I had no idea how long it was going to take me to actually ASSEMBLE it. I figured "I just need to gather the stuff and then it'll be done." How wrong I was...it took me about two hours of highlighting, paperclipping, signing, and organizing once I had everything. But that part was almost fun, it's been about the only part of this process so far where I felt like I had some control over it...it was finally something that -I- could do instead of just waiting for someone else's part.

Yeah assembling these packs is NOT fun. I did it all for my fiance as he claimed it would take him weeks to figure it out - so I did it all, then stuck post it notres all over the place where he needed to sign etc, and then posted it all to him. He then went through, put in the extra missing bits that I couldn't do for him (like passport photo and birth certificate) and then mailed it.

And that took him a week!!! lol

It's all just a mountainous heap of paperwork though........I nearly went nutty doing it all!

Hey everyone, n00b from denver. Sent my 129f on Feb 5th, they cashed the check on the 7th. Getting the number off the check and then checking the status on line it says they have sent a letter. I take it that is NOA1?

How did you send it? USPS, or Fedex, or UPS?

That's a wicked fast NOA1.

I hope mine arrives soon.

Does anyone know how I can find out my reference number if I sent a bankers cheque rather than a personal one?

I hope mine goes that fast! I sent mine out on the 9th and they received it on the 11th...I keep checking my bank account, hoping the check will show up.

They seem to like USPS - they received my packet and check on Jan 28, and must have deposited the same day because the check cleared the bank on the 30th. They're getting some of these NOA1's done real fast (although the hard copy in the mail takes a bit longer). So hopefully today you'll get some good news!
