USPS tracking- Ready for Pickup?

[Goldfish123 38]

I submitted my I-1751 application on Saturday using USPS priority express guaranteed delivery on 9/17/2018..

 

I just checked the tracking and it shows available for pickup ??

 

Is this normal? will someone from USCIS go and collect from the post office? should i call and check?

This happened if you sent your package with recipient signature. Did you sent your package with recipient signature required?

No.. They waived the signature..

If you sent it to the PO Box then it means it's in the box ready for pickup. I always get that status when I send stuff to PO Boxes.

So when will they pick it up from PO ? I'm confused I wanted next day delivery hence went for priority express mail for guaranteed delivery by 9/17/2018.. it still shows available for pick up..

Well USPS did their bit and delivered it to the box by the stated date. They can't physically force someone from USCIS to come and get the package. Did you send it to one of the new lockbox addresses? They'll probably go and get it tomorrow.

Yes I have sent to the Dallas PO Box address and it was ready for collection since 8.30 in the morning.. I waited the whole day assuming someone from  USCIS might collect but no one did so far i guess..

 

Will wait until tomorrow and check with USCIS regarding the parcel..

Experienced similar issue.  Sent the I751 package with priority mail to the Dallas PO box and USPS says the package is "available to pickup."  It arrived on Tuesday and today's Thursday.  Previously used USPS to send K1 and AOS packages to PO boxes with no issue.  I'm starting to worry a bit.  Conditional GC expires in May.

Goldfish123, how long did you have to wait for USCIS the pickup?  Wondering if others have similar experiences recently.  Understand the recent gov't shutdown may have  contributed to some delays.  Any advice will be appreciated.  Thanks!

Hey JK2019, I am currently in the same situation you were in February... sent my I-751 on Saturday to the PO Box in Dallas, TX to be delivered today and it now says “Available for Pickup” on the USPS tracking website. How long did it take for you to receive a response from USCIS that they had received it? Or did it update to delivered when someone from USCIS picked it up? I am now growing more and more worried about my information not getting there, hopefully you can give me some insight!

Hi Shayden10, I received notice that the check was processed about a week after I sent the package.  USPS never updated the status during that week for me though.  When I called USPS, I was told that the person who's doing the pick-up likely did not sign for it and the package itself was picked-up along with other packages from the PO Box.  If you want to call USPS, be prepared to be on hold for a while.  I remember waiting on-line for 1hr 10 min before a real person answered.  Good luck!

Thank you for your quick response! The status updated to "delivered" as of 4:40am this morning, I did request a signature so I am assuming someone picked it up and signed for it this morning. I think I just got a little impatient and nervous!
