Emily,
Keep some money in the bureau.  There will be some cards coming in 
even if  you don't request any.  See attached !  Inbound on the right, 
outbound on the left.   The outbound is taller because some of them
are from previous QSL answering sessions. 
 
Sometimes LOTW takes a while, but the confirmations come in sooner 
or later. Usually a LOT sooner than the bureau!   BUT I have received a
lot
of great rare DX cards through the bureau. 
 
My ratio of QSO to QSLs on the LOTW is  ~70,000 QSO's, ~14, QSL's. 
 
Keep working them, the more you work, the better chance of getting
something
confirmed. 
 
73,
John, K6YK
