Time for NOA1?

[Mr Mudkip 0]

I'm new here and hope this is the proper place to post this. I'm sure this has been asked many times, and I've found results - however, they were from topics and other websites dated years ago, so I thought I'd post this for and hope for recent/updated responses.

I mailed my I-129F by USPS to the P.O. Box 660151 Dallas, TX 75266 address, and tracking indicates it arrived April 14 at 2:50 AM. Based on my previous searches, many people often have their package delivered, and had their NOA1 usually less than a week later. For me now, tomorrow will make two weeks, and the check hasn't even been cashed yet. I called USCIS about it because I wanted to make sure it at least arrived into their facility safe and sound, and he explained I'd have better luck emailing the lockbox at their email address (so I just did), but he also said it could take 30-60 days for that, which seems like a crazy wait compared to what others had posted  2 or 3 years ago. So are there other recent petitioners here within the past month or two also experiencing this "long" wait and everybody is having 2+ weeks? Or does anyone know if maybe the lockbox facility is for some reason really backed up and I really do have a 30-60 day wait?

It can generally take up to 30 days. Some are within a week; but up to 30 days is normal.

They seem to be a bit slow these days as I have seen a lot of people asking same thing.

Ah. So as in "slow", have there been people reporting 30+ days from people on here? Or do we know the reason why it's seeming slow? I had been under the impression from what I had read from various posts in the past that pretty much all of them had a NOA1 within a couple weeks. My fiance is the one feeling impatient and thinking we should've heard something in less than a week, based on the stories of her friends, so she's become rather disgruntled with this waiting.
