Be safe - send fed ex so you can track online and know exactly when it was delivered. Just be sure you use the correct address shown on the service center's website for express mail packages.

We just used regular first-class mail and had no problems. But, if you want to be really sure they get it, use Priority or registered.

Good luck for a speedy process.

Certified with return receipt and you can track it on-line.

USPS goes to PO Boxes while nothing else is supposed to be able to ... at least the last time I looked.

I think maybe I sent it express ... can't remember though I did use the green card return receipt.

The USCIS site actually tells you that Mondays and Fridays are the busiest.

I sent mine to get there on Wednesday according to the clerk, mailed it one Sunday, and lo and behold it actually got there and was signed for as they said. Blew my mind.
