Mailing Address in China


Recommended Posts

I am about to file our I-130 in Guangzhou, and was wondering about one thing, the mailing address on the I-130. I have had multiple things sent to us with China Post, and none were ever delivered (a few papers from my parents), and had to be redelivered with Fedex since we had already waited 2-3 months for them, so I am a bit concerned about leaving our address on the form. Also, we don't have any sort of mailbox at our building. Mt wife's parents house also does not have a mailbox (neither does her grandparents' house). The I-130 doesn't leave a space to put a phone number for shipping, which is pretty important when shipping things here because they have problems even finding our address quite frequently. Does anyone have any ideas on what we should put for our mailing address? Do they require an actual mailbox, or will they deliver to your door? I really don't want to run into issues receiving the notices or whatnot. We are filing DCF.

You need to find an address that works. ALWAYS include the phone number - 電話 nnnnnnnnnn - so they can call you with any problems. I believe they use EMS, which offers door-to-door tracking. You can watch for when it arrives to your town. Call THEM - 11183 - and they'll practically walk it to where you are.

 

When shipping from the U.S., use USPS Express Mail International, which hooks up to EMS, offering the SAME service.

You could try adding the phone number after the name on the same line ( if it accepts #s) on that line. I am assuming you are filling it out online using Adobe or something simular.

 

Example: HONG WenChen. (123456789 shou ji)

 

But as Randy and I have always said, no matter what, always find someway, somehow to put the receivers cell phone number on the address label.
