have just called fed ex. (got tired of phoning the FBI. It just wasn't a normal thing to do!) They (fed ex that is) were able to tell me that I should be expecting it some time today and gave me a tracking number. This is what the tracking website told me (edited to remove place names):

when the fed ex guy told me it was due for delivery today, i told him "you've just made my day!" he said "oh, good." in a slightly bemused way. wheras mrdots was ready to celebrate, i'm not letting myself relax until it's in my hand and i know it's the right thing. thing is, we know there's a package coming, but we don't know exactly what's in it. it could be them returning my documents without having processed them because some 'i' wasn't dotted or a 't' wasn't crossed or they had a bad cup of coffee that morning or something.

i've dealt with american buerocracy before.

i'll keep you updated.
