Hi guys - my AOS/EAD/AP application was received by the Chicago lockbox on May 6, 2015, per my Fedex tracking status. They have yet to cash the check or send any email/text that they have received it. Should I be worried or do they always take this long? When we filed for my K1, they cashed my check almost immediately!

It is normal. It can take up to 30 days to hear from them. If the 30 day mark passes, call them.

Thank you! Do you think it really takes this long though, or do they just tell you that so that you can't bug them about your status? I see you received your NOA1 within 7 days.

Every case is different and although some receive NOA1 via text/email within 5 days or less, some have waited about two weeks or more for NOA1. A little patience goes a long way and I know it's stressful to be in the waiting game without news but hang in there. You should receive news soon.

Best of luck on your AOS journey! :)

You are welcome. Well I have seen people getting NOA1 14-20 days from filing, so it is not that uncommon. I wouldn't worry yet. Also if you want, join the May 2015 AOS filers thread, you will see lots of people there with a similar timeline to yours: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/547350-may-2015-aos-filers/

Good luck to you! :)
