When I have all my ducks in a row and get ready to send it off, what is the correct way? Priority mail? Reg mail? Return receipt?

Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation would be a good choice. :)

We tried Express Mail with Return Receipt (via mail NOT email) for our AOS packet and it did get there fast but we never got the Return Receipt @_@

It depends on how fast you want the USCIS to receive your package and how much you want to spend on postage. I sent mine by Priority Mail as a Certified letter, so that I would receive a receipt. It's not necessary to send as a certified letter, because you NOA-1 is your notice of receipt.

I wonder where ours ended up. LOL. When I got the NOAs in the mail and still no Return Receipt, I made a mental note never to pay for that service again and just stick to Delivery Confirmation or Certified Mail. XD
