Assalaamu'Alaykum Wa Rahmataullahi Wa Barakatuhu/Salutations Ladies:

I hope this finds you all well. I am getting a little nervous. My dh(dear husband) mailed the forms out on March 26, 2012 and now it's April 02, 2012 and we have not heard anything yet? Should I be nervous? Maybe it's all for nothing. He did not use the express mailing, so if he mailed it out Monday, March 26, 2012 then the Chicago Lockbox should not have received anything until possibly Wednesday/Thursday right? I am just wanting to see a NOA1 or something.

Am I bitting my nails for nothing? I hate being anxious.

Wa Salaam Saudiwife, No worries yet,...this is the just the begining :wacko: This is for the AOS, yes?

NOA1 will probably come by the end of this week but they say it can take up to 30 days.

I am just a little nervous. I finally was able to relax a little. I just want to make sure everything is right. Missing one thing can delay the process for up 3months so i heard. So, they received the package on Thursday, March 29, 2012. It's April 02, 2012. Everybody is saying to give until Monday, April 09, 2012 since Good Friday/Easter/Passover starting Friday. So offices are closed. I just need to breathe i guess.Thanks for the quick replies back.
