Hi, I'm ready to send in my I-129F package. It'll be almost 3" thick due to all the evidence from 4 trips and some front-loading. I'm hoping you guys can help with some questions.

What is the best method to use to send it in? Could/should it be sent signature required?

Can it be sent in a box?

Should I use FedEx, UPS or USPS Expres Mail?

And to confirm, this is the only address to send it to, correct?

USCIS

Attn: I-129F

2501 South State Highway 121 Business

Suite 400

Lewisville, TX 75067

Sorry, the nerves are catching up to me. Thanks in advance.

If you use USPS Express Mail, Fed-Ex, UPS; then the address you listed is correct and you can send it signature required.

I sent my petition using USPS Priority Mail with delivery confirmation.

If you chose to send your petition the way I did, send it to this address:

USCIS

P.O. Box 660151

Dallas, TX 75266

it doesn't matter which way you send it in because they're all going to be open/scanned at the same time at the end of the day. simply send it in usps with delivery confirmation and you should be fine. If you want up dates don't forget to use form g1145

Ours was about 4 inches thick (I went a bit overboard and sent the relationship evidence w/ the package.. oops) - bubble envelope was great!

I don't reckon there would be anything wrong with a box, but it might be a bit strange.... (I just think of like terrorists and suspicious packages, but maybe that's just me being a bit over paranoid :) )
