I know I'm just freaking out for nothing, but how long does it usually take to receive the NOA1? My packet was signed for on the 25th, but my check hasn't been cashed and haven't received any texts or emails.

There is no rhyme or rhythm to this. It's not first come first serve basis. It can take anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks.

Just be patient :-) It will come soon. Mine took 7 days for me to receive the email and the check cashed after it was signed by USCIS and don't forget we have a long holiday weekend coming so it may be until after the holiday to see any activity. Good luck on your journey!

It can take up to 30 days.

Thanks everyone! Just wanted to check the average.

So Harpa, since essentially EAD is "maybe" 90 days, would it essentially be 120 days from when they received? If that makes sense.

I can't remember if they backdate NOA1s for AOS (they do for ROC), but I would still count 90 days from when it arrived there. Good luck.

AOS for my husband
8/17/10: INTERVIEW DAY (day 123) APPROVED!!

ROC:
5/23/12: Sent out package
2/06/13: APPROVED!
