Now that I'm home, what I thought was going to be the hard copy was the card that goes with the certified mail I sent.  I did get the text that the package was received and I should get the hard copy in the mail soon.  I'm thinking not tomorrow...

I got my email today too! How about that! So, we should both be getting our hard copies in the mail soon. Yay.

Hi, can anyone give me an idea on when I should expect to get my first NOA1 from USCIS? I gave them the G1145 so I thought I would have gotten an email by now, but nothing yet.
Should I be getting this soon? When should I expect this? 
 

"Delivered: Tuesday, March 28, 2017 

Signed for By: B MCBRIDE  //  DALLAS,  TX  75260 //  4:38 am"

 

How long does it normally take to receive an email? And how long does it take to get a paper from the time that this person signed for it?

 

Thanks again.

Hey! :)) we were in the same situation as yours. Delivered 3/14 to Dallas, TX 75260. :)) Then we never received a notification from them.. Was freakin worried about it.. Then last week, I told my Fiancé to check his Mailbox, hoping that maybe they just missed sending a notif to us, and yes! The NOA1 hardcopy was there! :)) i'm sure it'll be there soon. :))

I-797 NOA1 hard copy arrived today. Case is already in the CA office.  Now my patience gets tested until the NOA2 arrives.

That's great! I'm happy to hear you got your hard copy. I still didn't receive mine yet, but it should be here soon considering we got our emails the same day.

And yes, this is the longest part of the process now. But at least we know we are one step closer to getting a visa, right!?

I didn't see the mail in the morning, but I got mine in the mail as well.  

 

So now we both wait for the NOA2! Maybe we will receive our next notice around the same time too, haha!

I sent my packet very early on Friday the 31st and I have been stressing ever since because I have not heard anything. I actually made a video of the packet so my fiancé could see it and I went back to the video to make sure my contact info was correct and it was. I decided to start watching my bank account and tonight I noticed that they in fact did cash my check so gonna guess that that is good news. Still wondering why I never got a text though. The only thing I could think that could be wrong with it... I never signed it. There was no spot to sign, so I didn't think I needed to. Thoughts?

Yeah, it's definitely going to be a waiting game from now on

But you should receive your NOA1 this week, probably. Fingers crossed for you! 

FYI, there's a forum for March filers. If you want to keep track of couples who have filed around the same time, you should check it out  

This sounds great! could you possibly include a link as to where this can be found?

I would give it a little bit of time, and if you haven't gotten anything in a month from the time it was received, than I would try contacting USCIS to see if you can get any information.
