I wouldn't worry Sabazou. EricTasha, Barroq, and myself all had our petitions delivered on Friday. I am sure you will get a notification soon! I will hope that it is tomorrow when you get your NOA 1! Especially since your case was received the very next day after ours.

I don't think you should worry. Mine was also received on the weekend but the check was not cashed until the following Thursday or Friday. They take their sweet time.

Thanks, just gotta trust in the process I guess!

I think the fact everyone is receiving it at once means that shipments out to Service Centers (or atleast the California Service Center) occur once a week. If this hasn't been noted previously, it might be worth pointing out to those considering shipping it via Express vs Normal Mail.

Hello!

Mailed in I129-F July 15th, email and text of NOA the 22nd and received the hard copy yesterday morning (it's 1am here, so it's technically now yesterday).

Super excited and a little anxious. I used a binder clip to hold the packet together, organized everything per visa journey's. It was about 94 pages, sectioned by applications, proof of meeting, proof of ongoing relationship which I also organized into subsections. Hopefully, the binder clip wont be an issue. I dread RFE's as I'm sure everyone does, haha.

All the best, everyone! :)
