The AOS was received at Chicago Lockbox February 11, 2021 and we have not gotten a reply. I looked at stats and lots show the maximum time between AOS being received to NOA1 no more than 24 days. Does that sound right? Any shared wisdom on the subject is greatly appreciated.

 

Hi! Ours was delivered on Feb 11. It's been exactly 4 weeks and our check has not been cashed yet. It took some people here 6 weeks for that. It looks like this is the general trend nowadays. Will update as soon as the check gets cleared.

Everything is delayed.  Patience is the key throughout the entire process.

https://www.uscis.gov/news/alerts/uscis-lockbox-updates "As a result of COVID-19 restrictions, an increase in filings, current postal service volume and other external factors, you may experience a delay of four to six weeks in receiving your receipt notice after properly filing an application or petition with a USCIS lockbox. These delays will not affect the receipt date which is determined pursuant to 8 C.F.R. 103.2(a)(7). Delays may vary among form types and lockbox locations."

Our packet was also received on February 11th.  I called USCIS last week and was informed that it could take up to 90 days to receive notice of receipt.

 

However, the check finally cleared today so I'm hoping to see the NOA1 letter in the mail in the next week or so.

We sent ours January 16. Still no NOA1 and when called nothing in the system. We had money orders so we can’t see if it’s cashed. I am very worried since I had friends who got theirs after 4 weeks and they sent it right after we did..

It says NOA1 can take up to 90 days to receive, as someone shared the link to USCIS website above. Be hopeful as much as you can and maybe send it again once you hit the 90 days. Good luck

It sound from the responses I've gotten that many people are delayed. Lets hope it means that we will clear the interview as a reward for our patience.

Just got the check cleared today. It shows as pending in recent account activity. Wanted to share. I am almost absolutely sure that we'll get an RFE, but will update once we get any mail from the USCIS.

We got confirmation today that our check was cashed! We hope that means that we will soon see our N01. Fingers crossed that we do not get an RFE. Really appreciate all of you that have been giving us encouragement. 

Congrats to you too.

 

I only sent two pictures of me with three forms (I-485, 765,131)  but it turns out most people sent 6 here.. So I have a feeling that an RFE will happen.
