Best way to Submit documents

I wanted to know whats the best format to submit NIW docments.
1] do you write cover letter (saying whats attached etc.) with I-485 and I-765 forms?
2] Can you put tabs and number the attachments especially for I-140 which has numerous attachments?
3] Can you use binder clips for documents related to one form together?
Those who have successfully submitted please comment/suggest.
Thanks

For the I-140, I did as advised in many places around:
- Punched the whole file at the top (two holes and a metal flat binding thing)
- Used tabs at the bottom on stronger paper at the beginning of the memo itself and at the beginning of each bunch of exhibits that I grouped by criterion.
- What shows up on top is a one page cover letter presenting the whole document.

The idea is to make the reader's life easy.

See here for more details on the layout (in case you did not see it).

If you send me a PM with your email address, I can send you pictures and excerpts of the file.

As for the I-485 and related forms (I-131, I-765...), it seems better not to punch anything. Better to use paper clips to separate documents. Indeed, a cover letter for each of the forms is a good idea! The first thing that will happen is that the various forms will actually be looked at separately, unlike your I-140 file...
