Reminder to oneself - "BE PATIENT"

I was hoping to hear today that the certified bank check was cashed yet. It hasn't been. :( It has only been a week. Just must breath. BREATH. It will happen. ;)

That was my lil bit of impatient venting. Hehehee. I guess after the long process of I-129 and the like I have become a bit impatient and want things now. LOL

I know what you mean, I keep checking my bank account online every 5 minutes to see if its been cashed.

Do the checks have to be cashed in order to receive the NOA?

I am still waiting for my checks to be cashed, too. I feel better knowing that it is not only my case, but you guys are waiting for the first news as well. I hear it may even take a month or longer for USCIS to cash your checks and send NOA.
