Received Wrong Police Check, Trying to Avoid Delays |

I made a point of printing off the detailed instructions outlined here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Canada.html and bringing them to my local RCMP detachment, and I requested my police check a couple months ago so it would be ready once my I-R1 was approved but I stupidly forgot to ensure in the meantime that I did in fact receive the correct one and of course I did not. I'm hesitant to go to another RCMP office in a nearby city to try again but the nearest Commissionaires is a three hour drive away and it sounds like it would still take a week minimum to receive the police check in the mail after that. My question is, should I still upload the police check I already have in the meantime and get the correct one within the next month when I am already planning to be near the Commissionaires so it will be ready well before my interview? The reason I ask this is because I have heard many stories about people uploading the 'wrong' one, having it approved by the NVC, only to be told at their interview that they need to send in the correct one. I'm curious about peoples experiences with this or if it's really not worth risking potential delays by trying this if it isn't even consistently accepted by the NVC. The one I received does have a photo of me and photos of my fingerprints which I know is wrong but seems to sometimes be accepted by the NVC though never at the interview, of course. I only received my NVC welcome email yesterday and submitted my fees last night. It said it would take something like 3-10 days to process the fees which I assume is when I will be allowed to upload my Affidavit of Support, Financial documents, Police Check, etc.-- I really hate to delay the process in any way and I'm super frustrated that I overlooked this. Am I misunderstanding the document submission timeline in this part of the process completely? I assume I should be uploading a police report within the next week. If I do this should I upload the correct one as soon as I get it or just wait and bring it to the interview? Will I not know for a few months if the NVC has even accepted the wrong one? I'm thinking I should just resign myself to the 6 hour trip tomorrow to get the correct one ASAP and hopefully only delay uploading it by a few days. Does anyone have any advice or recommendations for where to get a police check in Calgary with as quick a turnaround (and the correct type!) as possible? Any way I can be even more clear about what type I need?

We got an RFE for form i-864 is there any way to know if we made a mistake on the form or they simply lost it? Letter we got is extremely vague. I tried uploading it on here but they said that the file size exceeded. It basically says please fill out i-864, and send supporting documents it's very vague and doesn't say anything specific, anyone else got this or anyone else has any good insight?

I am filling out my forms and in Part 8, as a filer from part 1b (spouse of US), it requires me to itemize all the travel outside of the US in the last 3 years. I live in upstate New York and it's a short drive home to where I'm from in Canada and I visit quite frequently. I did not keep a list of all of the times I crossed to visit my family. Each time I crossed using my 10year Green Card. No visits were longer than one week. Is there a way to look up this information?

The Journey So Far... Last episode, I finally got my K1 after a ton of admin processing and delays requiring a second medical. I had some worries over these new registration requirements but was ultimately assured and learned that because I'm going via plane to the USA, I'll automatically just get an i94 (thanks, media, for overhyping the difficulty of going across the border). The Questions of Now So I have three boxes I want to ship -- either via FedEx or UPS. It's the last of my stuff and includes a menagerie of gaming consoles. Some of which have internal batteries. It also may include one laptop (haven't decided yet if I want to just throw it in my carry-on). How do I go about sending it over the border? Do I have to fill CBP 3299? Do I have to wait until the i485 has been processed or approved? For the manifest, do I need to itemize every single item? For gaming consoles, certain cables are of course considered a part of the bundle (AC adapters, TV connectors) but do I need to list those separately, and if I have a RWY converter to HDMI is that counted separately? Like, how itemized are we talking? On the note of i485, I want to make sure, do we get married and then fill that out as soon as we've gotten married? What happens after that? I appreciate the responses in advance. I just hate that my mind is so... literal. @^@
