I sent mine June 7 to the Dallas office.  Historically, Dallas super-fast at processing AOS, but in June they seem to have bogged down.  No receipt notice yet.  In May, it took only a few days to get receipt notice.  I hope that doesn't mean the whole AOS process will be slowed down also.

I just received a phone call from my senator's office ( Mark Warner ) they informed me they contacted the lockbox support team and that my case is being reviewed, and when all is reviewed my money orders will be cashed and the recipe will be sent to me.( and yes there a long backlog )

In other words, your case is in a pile waiting to be entered into their system.

Yet we were told the recent increase in filing fees would result in greater efficiencies, and faster processing times..........

The fee increases also created a rush to beat the April 1 deadline.

Good Morning. I just got some information indicating that the money orders for my payments have been in cash.I called USCIS..and they said it had been accepted and cashed.

The lady informed me that I should be receiving a notice of action in the mail if all is well or if something I missed on my application that needs to be corrected

Glad to see some movement with June filers.  Still nothing for me, even though mine was sent a couple of weeks before yours.  No reason to expect USCIS to start doing things in order now though.  They have already proven that they do whatever they want, whenever they want.

I filed the AOS AP and EAD on June 6th. I have not heard anything since and have not gotten a response from the lockbox email either. My package went to the Phoenix office which is local for me. I’ll update when I hear something.

I did the same as well ( for wife and child ) AOS AP and EAD... I'm just glad at least they cash my money orders.. I keep calling and emailing them to tell them that my money order will expire in 30 days.

And if not cash the money order will be useless and I will not get any refunds and lose out on my payments. I even told my senator's office the work on it.. and they did
