Not yet but I did receive an official response from USPS to my inquiry last week.  They assured me that the package isn't lost and will be delivered soon.  I have to give a huge shout-out to @bobinna13 as well for her help into this matter.  I'm still waiting with bated breath though until I receive official confirmation it's been delivered.

Do they have any idea where exactly it is right now?  Is it even IN Chicago at this point?

It's been there the whole time.  It basically hasn't left the distribution center because the package is having trouble being sorted.  :blink:

I'm gonna go in tomorrow and I will look again for you.  Sometimes it updates internally faster than what you guys see.

Hey all, so an interesting plot twist has happened. My husband looked at our bank account and saw that the checks have been cashed!!! I didn't receive an email or text notification nor have any idea when the package was even delivered because I was tols yesterday it was still in transit. I'm super relieved!!! But a tad surprised they cashed the checks so fast. I thought that took a week or two??

Nah they want to make sure a check isn't going to bounce lol!  Well if the check was cashed you can be assured it was received.  Perhaps USPS didn't scan the package upon arrival...wouldn't be the first time.

 

Sometimes they won't send the NOA until after the check actually clears through your bank---just a few extra days waiting time.

We sent ours via USPS priority to Chicago and it got there within two business days without a problem, which is fortunate, because I would have FREAKED OUT if this had happened to me :/ Glad it all worked out!

Hey all, I just wanted to say thank you again for all the help and support!! Once again, massive props to @bobinna13 for helping me out. Much love!! I had to take a bit of a break from here after finding out everything had actually worked out. We received our NOA's today so it is officially officially underway.
