I dont know if its just conincidence,but when I ordered my notes on Feb.23, I finally saw progress after 1 week.Its just that I didnt hear anything from them since Jan until I ordered the notes on Feb.23 and our application will hit 12 mos in 1 month at the time.I think when you order the notes, it will remind them to look at you application (again) and continue working on it,at least, from my experience.
