Yeah, for some reason Vermont is slower. I had heard of complaints for them for types of petitions. Hopefully they get their act together. You can also call uscis and ask for an update in your case even I you haven't received your receipt number. I did that yesterday and they told me that they had sent it on 9/11. I went to the mail yesterday and my receipt notices were there.
