I have had USCIS return my application (for a different reason, though) and they will return the check with it. If they cash the check, it sure implies the application reached the right place with at least minimum requirements.

I have had USCIS return my application (for a different reason, though) and they will return the check with it. If they cash the check, it sure implies the application reached the right place with at least minimum requirements.
What does it mean though? I sent my mail NON express/overnight and I am also getting this msg. I called USPS today they told me that this party has moved from the address you shipped to. That is why your mail is being forwarded to a new address.. May be USPS doesn't know this. I am curious about it.
Hey, can you please recheck your sent to address and make sure that it reads: P.O. Box 299026, Lewisville, TX 75029. PLEASE!
If so, we can all take a deeper breath and take a sigh of relief!
I have checked my recipt and it has the address "P.O. Box 299026, Lewisville, TX 75029". I have sent the papers by a USPS Priority Mail with returned recipt required.
Is it possible since it has returned recipt required this is why it took a little detour to the different address? I am most probably wrong but just a wild thought.
I think we will be just fine. Let's stop being too overly pessimistic and think positive for a minute. As nsc030104 said earlier, look for your check or money order to be cashed or returned. In either case, we will know soon, anyways.I have checked my recipt and it has the address "P.O. Box 299026, Lewisville, TX 75029".

Sent in my application on November 13th. It was a Friday (woah Friday the 13th! Uh-oh) so I'm guessing it will take 2-3 business days? I had a friend mail it for me, and they didn't track it so I have no idea where it is which is a bit worrisome...

Ok I got this email/text message from USCIS at 8:00 this morning. So my N-400 was first forwarded to Dallas and now it's being routed to the National Benefits Center. Is this common? Does anyone know much about NBC? Hmmm... this is turning out to be a very interesting experience.

OK.. now.. How do you guys get these emails? Don't you need the receipt number to even include the case in your online portfolio and then turn email alert on? Or, is USCIS sending emails to the email id mentioned on N-400? If it is the latter, I will be pleasantly shocked at USCIS' efficiency.

If that email communication sent to danimee is accurate, it is an astounding development and should be applauded. Government bureaucrats responding timely via email? Hey, in any case, the post office is the only reliable government entity that does a better job. I do not think for a second that they would misplace our mails. It is forwarded as requested by USCIS. Let's just cross our fingers and hope each of us can get a positive response back via the same route, regular mail.OK.. now.. How do you guys get these emails?

G-1145 Form
I found out about this G-1145 Form on the USCIS website right before I was getting ready to send out my N-400, which lets you get text/email message updates on your application from USCIS. The G-1145 instruction says that it can be clipped in front of your application if you want to receive electronic updates. It is a single page and all you need to fill out is your name, email address and your mobile number. They don't even ask for your signature but I put it down anyway.

Awesome! You are right on top on things. Hey, danimee, has the post office updated your tracking confirmation to reflect that your mail was received after it was forwarded? Mine was forwarded on November 13 but it still reads the same message.I found out about this G-1145 Form on the USCIS website right before I was getting ready to send out my N-400, which lets you get text/email message updates on your application from USCIS.

Hey, mine has not changed. I will give it another day. Zip code 75266 is a USCIS lockbox. They probably pick up mails from there once or twice a week. You are on track...Once your mail was received, you are on track.Label/Receipt Number: EH62 3447 331U S
