Here's some tips straight from USCIS:

http://www.uscis.gov...00045f3d6a1RCRD

They say you can staple fees but suggest using paperclips for supporting evidence

I don't think they'll turn you away if you staple things. I think we can all agree that paperclips are the easier, less messy solution from the USCIS point of view. And we are, after all, trying to make it easy for them.

Those are the tips for sending to the NBC, such as for AOS. That one states no ACCO fasteners, but the other general tips page(not for NBC) states to use the ACCO fasteners and avoid heavy-duty staples: http://www.uscis.gov...00045f3d6a1RCRD

I do not think stapling groups of papers that need to remain together would be a bad thing. I believe I have seen others post that they used staples that way with no problem. I hope it is not a bad thing because I have been getting the ROC papers together for my husband to send out next week and I have been using staples on things that need to stay grouped together.

Me too! Count me in, I am sending mine probably on Monday.. Here are the things I prepared:

1. Introduction Letter signed by hubby and me

2. Fees

3. passport copies, DL, SSN

4. 4 Sworn affidavits

5. 3 year joint tax returns

6. Insurance/ Retirement designations for each of us showing both our names

7. Joint home mortgage

8. Joint bank account/ vision, medical, dental cards/ costco cards/insurance letters for auto and life

9. Utility bills; some showing his name, some mine, some both

10. Pictures with families

11. Pictures when we bought our first home! Yeah!

12. Our pictures

My only concern is the children section. I was a little scared about that as I saw on some threads talking about having no kids at all. You think I have it all? Thanks!

To the OP,

I suggest you to change thread title to "I-751 March 2013 Filers". This make the thread more official(?) monthly filers thread I think

I think we are going to be fine with paperclips but not the staples as long as we use it for Fee

check a look to this

Use paperclips when attaching supporting personal documents to forms (do NOT use “ACCO” fasteners; staples are acceptable when attaching fees)

Gone through the link - it doesn't matter whether it is USCIS or NBC. I think they don't mind stapling everything except for the payment, which they probably want it attached using a clip for easy removal for cashing.

In case of photoes (not relevant for I-751) also they wouldn't like those to be staplled - we put those in a see-through envelope and stappled the enveloped during I-130/ DS-230 time.

Can i also use a personal check to pay the fees of the form and biometrics or whats the best way to do it?

Page 3 of the instructions for the I-751 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-751instr.pdf) state the following:

You may submit one check or money order for both the application and biometric fees, for a total of $590.

So, YES, a check works

Please note that your filing fee may differ if you have children...

thank you. i have read the instruction and it says a check but does not say a personal check so i was little confused.

I m so excited and little worried that i m going to send the package of Roc march 12 I think i would not able to send any statments of our joint accounts bec i have added my wife's name in few weeks ago and i did not received any statements of both of us name i know i asked it before but i really need to hear more advise of that if it is a good idea to send the paper from the bank that we have joint account together even though i added her name few weeks ago, almost time to fill the ROC. i dont want to give them a red flag bec of that

thanks again
