UPS lost our I-130.

I overnight expressed the I-130 (and all accompanying documents and the cashier's check!) for my wife and her son yesterday in an attempt to get everything there before this weekend, when forms expire and costs increase.

We woke today to find that the envelope ended up on the wrong truck. UPS isn't sure which truck that is, they just know it's not on the truck it was supposed to be on.

I spent 3 hours on the phone fighting with UPS (who refuses to refund the cost of shipping by the way, so never EVER use them please) and finally got them to change the delivery address to my own, figuring that if I didn't, it would just end up getting there late, being refused, and take months to get my documents and cashier's check back to me. Now my wife and I are wondering if something we found online makes that a really bad decision:

Part G - Public Grounds of Inadmissability states that all applications and petitions sent by commercial carriers, they will use the date on the receipt as the postmark date.

Should we have waited for UPS to find it and deliver it and hope they honor the expired forms and cheaper prices?

The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...

DS-260 Have you ever attended any educational institutions at a secondary level or above?

Ok so I’m not sure what to put down here, I have a high school diploma and currently attending college! So for the occupation part for a previous question I put down the school I go to and address, however I am uncertain what to put down here, I put my high school start and end date but do I also include the college? Because it says highest level of education COMPLETED but also in the drop down menu there is an option that says UNIVERSITY,NO DEGREE which if I do choose then I will have to fill out the school information and then a start date and an end date which I still do not know this is the only question I’m struggling will and have looked into it but no straightforward answer! I hope you guys can help submitted by /u/AlarmingUmpire3 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/immigration/comments/j2eni9/ds260_have_you_ever_attended_any_educational/
