Checking the case status online everyday is only going to test your sanity. It will not change from initial review until a decision is made. Furthermore, many people go without seeing the case "touched" between NOA1 and NOA2.

Which service center was the petition end up at after it was sent to the lockbox in Chicago? California right now seems to be at a faster pace than Vermont.
