I think you are now entering your "delivery arrival time zone." The whole process is kinda like " the twilight zone." The next two weeks should tell. Be of good faith.

It depends.....on what, I don't know. I received a piece of junk I didn't really need in 8 days, a speed record. On the other hand registered mail from Revenue Canada took 7 weeks. So far nothing has gone missing but it does take forever.

We have had a PO box in Jocotepec for the past 12 years, and delivery from Canada is anywhere from 15 to 30 days, except at Christmas. This is for reg. mail

Yep, we usually get our Xmas cards, that were sent in mid December from Vancouver , in late February or early March. This is the only mail we get down here. Everything else is either on-line or looked after by someone at our address in Canada.

It used to take about 3 weeks but lately it has been 10 to 14 weeks. Last week I got 2 Christmas cards mailed in early December.

I know that mail from December was held up in Mexico City. This was mailed about four weeks ago. They did not send it registered, it is a postal money order. (The post office in canada told them two weeks). Thank you for the help!
