Did you use:
1. Regular Mail
2. Registered Mail
3. Canada Post Xpresspost
4. Canada Post Priority
5. Fedex
6. Purolator
7. UPS
8. USPS

I did buy a priority envelope the other day from Canada Post but I was reading some posts on this forum and some people had their application lost. Now I am beginning to wonder if maybe I am not making the right choice.

I used Canada Post Priority. It arrived the next morning with no problems. I was able to track it on the website and see the signature at delivery.

I used USPS, I was not aware there was a alternate (non-PO Box) address that it could be sent to, and Fed Ex would not send it to the PO.
I was able to check tonight and both my applications (my spousal and then our kids certificates of citizenship) made it to their first stop - Chicago.
It was going to take 3-5 days.


I also put and additional $600 insurance on my application, incase it'd get lost and I'd need to redo a medical and documents (Ie: marriage/birth certs) it had $100 built in already.
The kids had $100 built in also, to cover the expense of replacing the documents in ther.

So glad to here everyone had a good experience with Canada Post Priority. I have never used it before so I guess I was a bit nervous about it.

yeh i didnt know there was another address other than the PO box.. and DHL wouldnt send it to that.. so after much deliberation i sent it via Uruguay EMS mail.. which was 1/2 the price.. and very nerve wracking.. but it got the in a week's time.. and actually some one signed for it! ha!

hmmm well it arrived safeand was transfered safe too :) 1 less thing to worry about.. but i seriously had an ulcer the entire time.. waiting for it to arrive.

We sent it special delivery (signature required) with the regular post from the UK. Arrived 4 days later, no problems.
