I checked USPS website and it says "We attempted to deliver your item at 4:14 PM on July 20, 2007 in MESQUITE, TX 75185 and a notice was left. It can be redelivered or picked up at the Post Office. If the item is unclaimed, it will be returned to the sender. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.
Does anyone has the same issue with TSC.
Thanks,

Hello everyone,
First of all, thanks to VJ for making this forum very educational and all you users who share his/her helpful experience. Good job everyone; I mailed i-751 for my wife, who's from INDIA. Sample cover letter is attached, let me know. Hope for smooth approval (TSC is slow, we know that). We went to D.O.R.A for AOS.
Green card expires on Sep 8, 2007 (It's late but not that late).
