Time taken for 485 receipt number generation

[rvisak]

My 485 package was received by USCIS last Friday (may 11th) but so far I have not got any email on my receipt number.

I vacate my current apartment on June 1st (2 weeks from now) and need to file a change of address to ensure my Fingerprint letter does not get lost hence the question and the urgency.

Any idea on how long does it take for the receipt generation? Does the email notification from USCIS lockbox work fine ?

This is an employment based petition filed by my current employer and their in house attorney.

If you submitted G-1145 and provided your email id or cell no, you get the notification immediately upon its receipt. Or else you will be notified by mail which can take 7 to 10 days after acceptance.
