Haven't... until now

Hi, may I clarify if this sentence has 2 meanings?

I haven't received my item until now.


It seems to mean:

I have yet to receive my item.

As well as:

I have not received my item before now; now I have it.



Thanks.

The problem is that it's not a natural thing to say. Natural English is I haven't received my item yet.
