Got my wife's I751 submitted now. Luckily. it was before the price increases in April. 

So now, we sit and wait.

From what I have been told, she will probably be a US citizen before the actual card arrives 

Did you mail it to the PO Box in Carol Stream IL?

It is certainly possible she may never receive a 10 year Green Card.   I-751s seem to have a very low priority.  

Case in point:

After 40 months of waiting for the I-751 to be approved (No RFEs), wife filed N-400.  Four months later, both the I-751 and N-400 were approved in the same interview.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

Since we are in Alabama, the files were sent to Tempe, AZ.

Oh yeah. Thanks for the response. 

Hopefully that lockbox is better than the one in Carol Stream. I mailed my I-751 there and it was delivered on March 11 but I still haven't received anything.

Same here. Mailed to Carol Stream, IL.

They received mine 1 day after the earliest date from the USCIS calculator.

I requested a fee waiver.  I still haven't received anything.

Glad to see you are hanging in there also

Did you receive any text or email yet? I sent my wife’s application from Houston, Tx to Tempe, Az as well on march 22nd. It was delivered on the 26th, no update so far.

I finally got it! It took exactly 21 days to get the case number for my I-751 with the fee waiver request.

 

I logged into my online account this morning and found that my case had been added! They still have not sent the text or email notification.

 

The Receipt Notice is still not available for download.

Too early. It probably takes a week or few until somebody actually opens the packet

It seems like we forgot to sign the G-1450 form for credit card authorization. I guess now we should expect for a rejection letter and the packet to be returned to us.
