      I also want to express my support, Nell.  I am not ready for this step, some day.  I wish you the best on your publishing your ebook.

   They usually pay about two months after the sale. If you have waited longer, give them a ring Nell and ask for your money.
   Good luck. I hope you get it soon.

   There is a two-month pay lag. Ebooks sold in January, for example, pay out by the end of March provided you meet the minimum of $10 in US and Canada for EFT and $100 in US and Canada for check payments.
   
   Check out kdp.amazon.com and read the "Getting Paid" page for more information.

   If you published your book on Kindle I understand they wait 30 days or after the close of a full month assuming your payout royalty is at least $10.
