I did mine like this 

Just a quick tip on the USCIS website for filling tips it says to put the tabs at the bottom on the pages not on the side. I don’t know why, but I thought I’d just let you know if you haven’t already sent yours off yet.

I did mines with signature as well . Think it was additional $3 with the priority box . Just for peace of mind 😂. 

Oh yeah, I’m going to do mine with the signature then and for $3 it’s totally worth it😁 Thanks

Make sure you send it to Arizona

Oh yes definitely, I was meant to send it to Arizona anyway but just gotta double check to make sure it’s right. Don’t want to send it to the wrong place. Thanks again

I did a signature, just so I knew somebody took it 

okay sounds good, better to be safe knowing it was delivered. Thank you  

Happy Labor Day everyone, 

I was looking to find out did everyone send their package with or without a signature for delivery? I'm sending mine off tomorrow with USPS and just need to know whats best. TIA

Debit card should also work.

 

Do you have a credit card that provides rewards (cash back, points, etc.)? If so, I recommend using such card.

Okay awesome thank you, unfortunately we don’t have any credit cards. So we’re going to have to use our debit card other wise I was just going to just send a check. Thought it’d be easier to just use the author form for the card then having to send a check. 

Did anyone send a Form G-1450 filled out with a debit card instead of credit card. I’m asking because on the website it said fill out credit card info but at the bottom of the webpage it says credit and debit. So I am wanting to use debit card instead of having to send a check with the petition but I don’t want it to get sent back and I have to file again. Anyone that can help TIA

Oh okay okay, personally I don't have intention to do this. I feel that if the paper gonna lose, it gonna lost lol. They won't spend time to find it nor would I wait until they find it, at the end we would have to resend them anyway haha.

 

I will also be using the auth form to pay in credit card, I feel it is easier than using check haha. If you are not sure, maybe you can include a check in there just in case? I think they would throw that away if they paid with your debit card.

That’s true, I guess we’d end up resending it so there’s no point in adding the name and A number now lol and Yes it’s definitely easier. That’s a good idea I might do that, hopefully they don’t cash the check and charge the card if I do that.

I don't think it is necessary to put A number and name on each documents, because I feel it is not necessary.

 

For hightlight, I think it is better to reprint then without highlight because it might potentially affect the scanning quality. I also highlighted things first, but I have reprinted all of them.

 

I am not sure about the card. But I believe if their system can process credit card, they must can process debit card no? I have not heard yet anyone says, we take credit card only. Usually either only debit card or both.

I felt the same way, I don’t think it’s necessary to have name and number on all pages but I wanted to check to see what everyone else had done. Oh okay I didn’t see that, thank you for finding that. It seems they taking both which would be a lot easier than using a check. Thanks for the help much appreciate it 

Hello everyone,

I’ll be sending my packet off on Tuesday but I’ve got a couple of questions if anyone can answer that would be greatly appreciated. First question: Do we have to add our name and A Number to every attached page that we submit( for example Utility Bills, IRS Tax return etc.)? It said to do so on the website (I’ve attached a screenshot below of what I’m talking about) and I’m not sure if we have to do it too all documents? Second question: It says to not use highlighters, But I highlighted some of our bank statements that had important information on it. Should I just reprint them out and not highlight it at all, and how can I show they are important if we can’t highlight? and lastly did anyone use a debit card to pay or is it strictly Credit card. I looked all over the credit card page on the USCIS Website to find out but it doesn’t say it anywhere, I don’t want to send it off with a debit card info filled out on the Form G-1450 and it gets rejected, I know I can send a check but I was just wondering if anyone else used debit? TIA

This is from a couple years ago. The change that they just made was only within the past month.

oh right just saw the date, but it looks like they are only using the Phoenix Lockbox for everyone now

Sadly, there's no formula for 100% success rate using either USPS/Fedex or UPS. Basically whatever you're comfortable using...I, for example, did my AOS filing with Fedex and my ROC filing with USPS. Fedex/UPS offer(s) the ability to have someone sign for the package, I guess, since it is not at a lockbox facility.

On the kind of box...it all depends on how much paperwork you've gathered, and if it needs/warrants a bigger box.

See the 1st post on this Aug 2020 filers thread, I posted a picture of my paperwork/package. Total number of pages for me turned out to be ~75. I was able to send them in the USPS priority mail envelope that sideloads...

Good luck!

Thanks for the quick response. Yeah I have a lot more than 75 pages so I’ll probably have to go with a box. Thank you, and Good luck to you as well. 

Hello everyone, I’m filing early September and I know this is August filers but since there isn’t a September filers topic yet I thought I’d just ask it here. Which is the best place to send the package off with (USPS or FedEx) and what box is the best to use. The top loader or the Side loader, medium or large? Sorry for the questions just need to know so I can prepare properly when I send it. TIA
