How long does it take for USICS to cash personal Check for AOS package? (Merged)

[Romelus21 12]

It's been 22 days since I mailed my package and I've not received a notice of receipt. I paid with personal check for both my K1 and K2. Anyone know how long it takes? Who do I contact?

No one.

Noa1 can take up to 30 days from when the shipment was received not sent before you are eligible to place an email enquiry with the lockbox. 

Time to join your monthly AOS Filing thread to learn the basics.

And where's that thread so I can "learn the basics?" Also, the last half of your sentence doesn't make any sense. Are you trying to help or be a smartoff?

Here's the AOS group if you filed in October 2023.  You can follow there. My check by the way was cashed in just a short period of time.

Thank you for your thoughtful answer.

Not sure if your check was cashed yet, but they received my application on 11/6 and they cashed my personal check on 11/10…. My case was mailed to the Chicago Lockbox. Not sure if that also makes a difference.

I sent both k1 and k2 AOS forms together in same envelopes with separate checks and they only cashed the K1 AOS check. It's now going on a month and it still isn't cashed. Is this normal? Has this happened to anyone else? Forms sent on Oct 20 and check for k1 cashed on Nov 8.

Noa1 can take up to 30 days from when the shipment was RECEIVED not sent before you are eligible to place an email enquiry to the Lockbox. Nothing you can do about it until then. 

There is no exact timeline for any of the steps inbetween.

I mailed both my K1 and K2 AOS in the same envelope, with 2 separate checks, on Oct 20 to the Chicago Lockbox. They cashed the K1 check and sent NOA1 on Nov 7. They still have not cashed the check I sent for my K2. So from what I'm reading is that it can take 30 days to cash that check even though they were sent together in the same envelope?
