Do not use usps priority!!!!
 

Well... I guess in the end USPS Priority did its job. I sent it on the 25th and it was delivered on the 28th. HOWEVER, I was worried out of my mind all last week. USPS tracking stopped updating on the 28th obviously because it was delivered on that day but I had no idea because tracking info never updated. In fact, my package "is still out for delivery" as of today.

I called USPS on the fourth day (29th) and they CONFIRMED that my package had not been delivered yet and told me to call again on the fifth day if tracking didnt update. I called on the fifth day (30th) and they "opened an investigation", gave me a case number, and told me to expect a call within one business day. On the sixth day I patiently waited for a call I have YET to receive. It wasn't until about 5:30pm when I was able to breath again after I got my two texts/emails from USCIS confirming the delivery on Aug 28, 3 days after indent it.

What a hassle!!!

So I guess if you send it priority give it a week before you start to worry

It needs to be USPS EXPRESS.

I sent mine on the 23th with priority flat rate envelope, I wish I bought delivery confirmation. I also live an hour away from Chicago. If I don't get text/email notification by tomorrow Im going to be worried.

I sent mine through priority on tuesday and I check the tracking and it says it has been delivered. I sent mine to the chicago lockbox not the p.o box. Yours hasnt been delivered at all? Did you get a tracking number? If so when was the last place it was tracked? Did it even leave the post office? Im worried my package might be delayed since i mailed it through the express address with priority.

Maybe you should call the last place it was? Im starting to think there are assholes out there knowing where these packages are going and what they are and making them dissapear. I dont know its just a thought that has crossed my mind. You know? Anti immigrant people or something. I really hope your package didnt get lost :/

Re: Do not use usps priority!!!!
 

I did call. I have a case number for the investigation. I should receive a call before the end of the business day tomorrow :-(

Re: Do not use usps priority!!!!
 

What sucks is that if it gets lost, your info is at risk.

Re: Do not use usps priority!!!!
 

Why would someone not use Express? It only costs 18.50 for the flat rate envelope. It gets there in one business day and you get tracking information. I feel that is more than worth the $20.

8-O that never even crossed my mind!!!
