I think it may get returned because of this. I realized I paid for the EAD as well which I don’t think I needed to so they may return it because of that. 

means u paid 1225+ 575? i think if ur adjusting from k1 concurrent with ead n ap the total amt is only 1225(filing fee for aos n biometrics)

If you are filling from K1 you have to pay $1,225: AOS + biometric... no need to pat AP or EAD if you file all at the same time.

I had my package returned cause I forgot biometric fees so I doubled check on the phone when I called them.

Delivered and received by J.Robinson. Keeping a close tab on my bank, and my email/phone for NOAs

Just checked my bank - and they cashed the checks last night.

But no e-NOAs, yet - via text or email. Any idea why no NOAs? - I had attached 4 G-1145s - 1 for each of the forms

Nothing to worry, usually checks are cashed a day or 2 earlier before receiving your e-NOA's. 

rule they follow payment first work afterwards. LOL

Did you put it altogether on one check?  Or did you provide a separate check for the I-765 (EAD)?  The reason I ask is, if you didn't put it all one check then they may still accept your package and return the check for the EAD (this happened to a January 2018 filer recently).  If you lumped it all on the same check, however, they will return your entire package stating incorrect payment fee.  If this is the case you will need to write a check for the correct amount and pop it straight back in the post with the package to USCIS.  Do not panic, all will be fine :).

I separated all the checks and attached them to each application. I don't know what else could have been wrong with mine since i haven't heard back and it was delivered on the 1st. If they are returning it I wonder when i'll receive it - at least i'll know what's going on at that point.

This happens.  One usually precedes the other.  In general, you only need to attach one G-1145 to the top of the entire package to receive an noa for each application/petition.  Sending more than one, however, will not go against you :D.

We seem to share the exact timeline of filing and notifications so far

 

I too received my NOA1  hard copies in mail on 02/10/2018 whilst had my text and emails on the 02/06/2018

 

Lets see when we get the appointment notice 

Hey! Any news on your biometrics appointment yet?  USPS Informed Delivery shows that I have a letter coming from USCIS today.  Please be my biometrics letter!  So nervous in case it is an RFE but nothing is showing on the USCIS case tracker to indicate what it may be!  Do you have any letters coming from USCIS today?
