EAD Renewal & Chicago lockbox delays

[BiAdam 21]

Does anyone know how long USCIS Chicago lockbox to open packages? USCIS released an update in January (https://www.uscis.gov/news/alerts/uscis-lockbox-updates) saying that lockboxes are experiencing significant delays.

 

I sent my package for renewal a month ago along with a G-1145, and still didn't hear anything from them. I don't know if it's waiting to be opened, or if there is a mistake and I'll receive it back.

 

I need the extension of EAD soon (by June) and a new AP as soon as possible. I can't even try to expedite it as I don't have a case number.

You got the NOA1 already?

I got a text message from USCIS exactly 4 weeks after the package was delivered. I received the NOA's shortly after by mail.

We got our USPS I-797 today from our AoS, here is our timeline:

 

Sent via Fedex:  March 12

Rec'd and signed in Chicago: March 15

Text notifications received:  April 7

USPS mail we got our I-797:  April 13.

 

Its been getting quicker over the past two months.  I've seen a few AoS filers laterly getting their texts after 3-4 weeks consistently this month.

Case status says the case was received on March 15th, I got the NOA's and the text messages 3 weeks after that.
