So I sent the AOS package last friday and it was signed for at 11am on Monday. Its now Thursday and I do not yet have a text msg from them or the $ withdrawn from my bank account. Can someone tell me how long does it usually take for them to open the package and start working on it? I know im quite impatient but is what it is lol

It can take up to thirty days to receive receipts from USCIS and have them cash the cheques.

Same here, filed ours the same day as you and it arrived on Saturday and still nothing yet. It's very hard to be patient (and not think of a million things that could have gone wrong to hold things up) with something as important as this!

Maybe this should be the official thread for July filers? It doesn't seem like there is one yet and this would be a great place for everyone filing in July to keep each other updated on how things go for them.

I agree!, I don't really know how to add people, but I'd like to keep in touch with all of the July fillers.

It would be like a support team lol. I've thought about a million things too, my driving license would be good until August 14.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

Got a text msg w 3 MSC#s for the forms in the AOS Friday and they cashed the check Today it seems like. They sure are fast getting your money lol

Whoo!! Finally! You must feel a little better now to know it's in :).

We finally got our update too (took long enough!). USCIS sent the emails at 4:35am this morning. Still no text messages though. I did some more digging and found this thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/439579-july-2013-filers/ which was set up for this year's July filers. If you don't want people hijacking your thread, we could all post in this other one to give updates as they come in to keep track of each other's progress.
