I have a little observation on the free test kits. Ordered a set for Massachusetts family one minute before ordering a set for us to be delivered us in Florida. The florida set that were ordered the one minute later, were delivered yesterday (had to have a neighbor help us out and hold for us). I have not even gotten a shipping notification for the Massachusetts set as yet. So, IMM the delivery state is some sort of factor in the prioritization of the shipments.0

I don't know if the state matters...everyone I know in Illinois who ordered them all on the same day had really different delivery schedules. Some got theirs a week ago, some still haven't. All the same state, all the same order day.
Either it's random, or has more to do with the speed of your local post office.
BTW, no one I know got a "shipping" notification...just a delivery notice on the day of arrival.1 -
I am in GA- I got mine a few days ago-- and some other folks who ordered theirs have already received them0
-
Hmmm...I live in Maryland and know of no one who has received theirs yet.1

I wonder if that's related to having signed up for the emails that pre-notify a person what mail to expect? Are you signed up for those? I get notified of most (all?) USPS packages as part of that process, including separate emails about packages.0 -
Greetings, all. Anyone in the US who ordered government test hear anything about shipping? I ordered 1/12 and other than immediate confirmation email have not heard (or received) a thing.
I don't remember where I read this so please take it with a grain of salt, but I heard they were prioritizing shipping to zip codes with high rates of spread. Here in central VA even our spikes are not very high, and I haven't heard anything since I got my order confirmation on the day the program opened.2 -

Informed delivery. Yes, my husband has that and he gets a daily email regarding what to expect in today's mail.
But, this notice came to my email, which I had used to order the tests, and don't use for any other USPS account.
It's strange, seems like everyone is having a different experience with it.2 -

My husband's email address was used for "our" set that was delivered to florida. He did get a shipping confirmation and he was able to track it, so we knew we needed to arrange for friends to help receive the package.
My email is for the family members in Mass and I have no email other than the original. Curious If I will get a shipping alert to convey like my husband, or no alert like you mentioned @suzysunshine99

My in-laws ordered their tests then tested positive locally for covid. Two days left in my MIL's quarantine their tests came in....a little late to be of use!
I don't know when she ordered them, but it was before FIL was positive.1 -
We ordered them as soon as we could, but haven’t received them yet. (Iowa)1

I ordered them the first day I read about the link on the news. Got an 'expected delivery date' email last week and an 'out for delivery' email on Monday. I'm in South Dakota. My Texan sister got hers the Saturday before.1

Ordered and received confirmation on 1/20. No kits or any indication of being shipped yet. The email indicated kits would start being shipped late January. With shipping by the US postal service, not surprising because of the slowdown🤷🏼♀️1 -
Mine came yesterday 2/3 here in TX. They came from a distribution site in San Antonio. It seems like the location of the distribution site and the post office it goes through would make a difference.
For example, late 2020 when I lived in west TN, my packages were delayed going through the Memphis USPS. This was one of the facilities where mail sorting equipment was removed. One example is something I bought online in August. I saw it track from Texas to Memphis, then stop. Eventually the tracking detail changed to lost. But the package showed up in Jan 2021. There were other similar situations, just an example.3 -
I got an email yesterday that mine were to arrive that day, but we had a snow storm yesterday so I have no idea if they made it. I can't get to my mailbox yet either. So bad timing!3

I'm in MA and placed my order 01/20/2022. I received an email confirmation at the time. It includes an order number, but I don't see anywhere to plug that in to check the status of the order. Anyone?0

Ordered test kits first day. Haven't heard anything since initial email. No kits have arrived (unless they are in my mailbox, which I'm not going to get to until some of the ice melts).
My spouse's employer has decided on 3/1 back to office "no matter what". My spouse is now (finally) trying to tackle pandemic weight gain in order to fit into "hard clothes". And, here I was, all ready to deal with the ice/snow/cold with mega-baking. 😁5 -

I ordered on the 18th, and have heard nothing either. I would love it if there was a status check somehow. I'll be watching the other responses to your post.0 -

They are still useful! AFAIK, CDC recommends 5 days isolation or until symptoms abate, whichever is longest plus 5 days masking in public. BUT, if you have a test, it's helpful to test at 5 days to determine if it's safe to stop isolating.
I'm also in TX, and nothing since the confirmation email 1/12.0 -
We got an “auto-reply” message at 12:36am today that our tests will be here Monday, Feb 7 by 9:00pm.2

Here in northeast TN, we got ours on Jan 27. There's always the component that large swaths of Tennesseans, including our state govt, have decided Covid is over, and have been doing this for some time, so that there weren't as many takers for the tests. Fewer sign-ups. I don't know this for sure of course, but no masking for over a year plus very low vaccination rate and testing rate...that's not difficult math, so to speak.5
