We mailed our AOS apps August 4. We actually mailed to Nebraska (mistake) and have been waiting to see if they would be forwarded to Chicago.

Just today - September 14 - our check was cashed!

I know no one can say for sure, but does this imply that our apps were forwarded to Chicago?

Also, what does this mean in the whole time-line? Should we expect an NOA or Biometrics appointment soon or could we still be in the 'semi-truck full' of apps waiting to be processed? :huh:

In my opinion, I'd say that they must have accepted your package and forwarded it to the appropriate department (area) as they have cashed your check. If not, i'm sure they would have returned the package along with the payment. Not sure about when you'll get a NOA or biometrics appointment. Some people who filed before me have their biometrics scheduled but don't have an NOA yet, where as I have my NOA but no biometrics. I'd say it's a good sign and now the waiting begins. :)

If the check has a case number beginning with MSC, then the petition was forwarded to the National Benefits Center, (NBC) in St. Louis. Nothing actually happens in Chicago except to forward to NBC. Expect a biometrics appointment soon. NOA1 will likely come later.

Yes, it is a good news that your check has been cashed. That means they have started the process. Not everyone waits for 2 years as Britchick mentioned in her post. I got my green card within 6 months, and some people even faster than that. So, it is all individual, try to stay positive and hopefully it will not take too long.

Good Luck
