Hi everyone in these forums,
Although this is my first post, I've benefited a lot from specifically this but also a bunch of other forums while preparing my application (I've consulted immigration attorneys regarding my situation, but prepared forms myself), so thanks a ton already
Status as of today: Visitor / Overstay (entered legally 9/2007, status expired 3/2008)
3/17/2008: Married to USC Spouse
6/5/2008: Mailed I-130, I-485, I-864 (petitioner), I-864 (joint sponsor), I-693, I-765, 2 x G325A's to Chicago Lockbox using USPS priority mail w/ delivery confirm.
6/6/2008: Delivery confirmation by USPS
I live in Chicago, does anyone know which service center will handle this?

Living in IL - your DO would be Chicago, IL or Saint Louis, MO (most likely Chicago

In fact - in some offices they won't even allow someone in the door if they do not have an appt. My wife and I went last week for FP appt in Atlanta - and they wouldn't even let her in the door - she had to wait out in the parking lot.
Chicago Lock Box Zip
Hi TNguy78 - I had mailed I-130, I-485, I-765 etc for my spouse to the Chicago Lockbox at zip code 60605-1029 (as shown on the I-485 instr). However, the I-130 instr puts the zip code at 60605-1098. Everything was mailed in one packet on May 19th and received in Chicago on May 20th per UPS tracking.
I have not received any receipts, none of the checks have been cashed, although it has been more than 3 weeks. I am wondering if I had sent it to the wrong zip+4 code? Any comments are appreciated.

I think the correct address for sending all the forms for family base GC is
USCIS P.O. Box 805887 Chicago, IL 60680-4120
I think you have submited to wrong address.
Mailing address for GC filing - spouse of US citizen
Sahil - Thanks for the response.
The address you have provided is for US Postal Service (USPS). For the private courier service (UPS) what is the address to mail to in Chicago?
Thanks.

Nick2k8 - I happen to have a copy of the previous I-485 instr. (Rev 07/30/07) and you indeed had the correct address for private couriers (non-USPS) deliveries.
Since you sent it on May 19th and it was delivered on May 20, it should have gone to the right place. The new I-485 form with the new address for was not effective until May 27, 2008. Plus, the couriers have agreed to forward all deliveries to the new address until Aug 24, 2008.
Your application should be there - I don't know why the delay in getting the checks cashed and the receipts back. Some applications seem to get cashed fast and others do not - but with no real reason for it.
Good Luck
Hi TNGuy and Sahil - Thanks for your responses. Looks like the USCIS got my documents, but has created a mess. They have taken one of my checks and sent it to another filer in Houston, Texas saying that the payment was not needed and was being returned. It was for $355 to cover the I-130. That lady sent me a copy of my check and her rejection notice.
I called USCIS today and they said they cannot help me until the checks are cashed.
I am considering cancelling the rest of my checks and filing a fresh duplicate application. Do you guys know of any downside to doing that?
Regards.
Nick.

hey guys- today i received the notices for following forms I 485, I 765, I 131, I 130.
Am I suppose to receive receipts for I 864 (Petitioner, Joint Sponsor), I 864A & I 693 ?
Nope, just the ones you mentioned. The I-864 and I-693 are apart of the 1-130 and I-485 package, so they wont send you a notice for them.
