You'll get a text/email as soon as they process it - not when they receive it. For example, my notification came a few days after it was physically received by post (two days after I sent it, which allowed me to get a refund for "next day delivery" - silly USPS). Don't stress about it if you can help it. You'll have plenty time to stress and worry over the next 7 months or so!

I am the USC/petitioner.

Hate to say it but you'll probably get your package bounced back if there's no check...but don't panic. Process is a long one anyway, that's just a little bump on the road.

Hunnee, least someone signed for yours! *grumble grumble* mine got rejected at the post level. Not sure if to blame a USPS worker making a big oopsie or disgruntled desk worker...

One thing you've got to remember though, it's government, they'll do things on their own time. Least it got there!

No worries it will take a little while before they text/email you the notice. Being the holiday weekend, and no work monday, you'll probably wait a few more days. I sent mine on a 15th and received a text message on the 24th, though I used 2 day shipping.

As for the other guy, what pro_stars says is going to happen to your petition. It's going to be sent back to you if you didn't include the check, send it back and make sure the very first thing they see when they open the packet is that nice little check waiting for them.

Sorry guys it took me a long time to respond. I confirmed from her and she said she sent a bank draft with the packet though she haven't heard from them yet but hopefully we will get our first update anything soon. I hope and pray that May filers will get NOA2 in less than 4 months. Amen.
