By mail. Per post #2342: Mailed application 3/25. Delivered 3/27. Today, 3/29, check was cashed.

Processing time seems to be changing for the better in general (after the bad publicity). Hopefully yours will take less time than mine.

I agree with Susan that you did the right thing to apply now. Have a backup plan in case, but you pretty much have to wait until 5 days before travel to get noticed (by current rules).
