We've been lucky with USPS the entire time Mike was in the province. I guess it all depends on the location.

DHL and FedEx are the most reliable ones but it will costs a lot more

Good luck!

"LOVE is a journey. We walk through life, found each other along the way and stayed inlove. And the best thing is being MARRIED to the person you love and accepting that the future will unfold itself while the two of you still bonded by the same word everybody called LOVE. A love that says "Let God be God"

Quick question...how heavy was the entire package of documents you sent to your fiance?...Cuz when I shipped with Fedex, it was going to be like $120-$140, I can't remember the exact price. That was for a 5 lb package...I sent an entire binder full of documents. So expensive...but thank goodness my dad has a great discount with them...paid just slightly under $40. :) It took about 6 days...Texas to Iligan City.

From your experience, do you recommend USPS, FedEx or DHL? Thanks!

My wife and I used LBC to deliver documents from Cebu to California. I paid around $30 bucks and it arrived in 3 days. I believe LBC uses DHL once it reaches the US.

It was less than a pound.

I sent information like the I-134 and my supporting documents.
