How many January peeps have been touched? I have had no touches since my app was placed in the system, hope I'm not alone. If I'm going to get an RFE for my name issue or the wrong size passport photo I sure hope it's within the next 2 months or I won't be here to deal with it... It would be especially frustrating if it were for my name issue since the only way I could fix it would be to go to the government office in KTM with my name change court order and beg them to change my name on the marriage certificate - there's nothing I can do about it here.

Neither of us get any touch since NOA1.

I see someone whose K3 filed in Jan.08 got approved today.

Maybe K3 is better.

No touches here either ..... I've actually given up looking at the website. Vermont will happen, when it's supposed to. The 2 Novembers filer approvals gave me a bit of hope .... and my instincts keep shouting at me saying I should be getting on with my preparations to leave the U.K. .... I really don't think January filers will be long.

An RFE Pattu Rani? .....don't even think about somethink like that ..... just imagine everything is wonderful and that they'll approve it 'whatever' .... however, when you visit your SO, try and get the stuff prepared anyway. (F)

Wow, Lucy, a January K3? that's something. Maybe I should've sent in the paperwork for that too, but everyone was saying they were cancelled, so I didn't bother :wacko:

My husband called USCIS today to inquire about our I-129F because it's been a month and we haven't got NOA1 yet.The person he talked to said she was surprised to have found the application at all because it wasn't supposed to be sent to Vermont but California instead.I don't know why she acted surprised when our I-130 was sent there from Chicago lockbox.She said they can work on it since the are not that busy.Anyhow,she found the application and said that we should expect NOA1 to arrive in a couple of weeks because of the holidays.We had two touches on our I-130 and it wasn't because they put the two applications together as I thought.

Hi I registered on USCIS website... where do I see the "touch" showing up? Is it the "LAST UPDATED" field?

I just got to NOA1, but I have a "last updated" 5 days after the NOA1 date... Is that a touch?? ;-)

This is what it says on the web:

Note on "Last Updated" date:

Your case may have a new "Last Updated" date and you may receive an Email Notification of your case being updated, without the status of the case changing. This is due to internal USCIS processing being performed on your Case. This will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date, but may not result in a different status message.

What could "updating" mean?

Our I-129F got touched at least twice....14th and 16th of this month. I donno if it was touched prior to that, as I did not know what that meant. heeheee

Just as it ought to be in a great civilized nation!!!

10 months for processing is a shame. They should invest more resources into this. I mean, they even raised the fees!! Future residents will create $$, not all will be just a cost! So why not improving the bureaucracy, and having more temps in those data entry seats? I hope they are finally catching up with the August problems, and that the new filers are fewer, put off by the increase... They say that 50% of the weddings are fake: who knows, perhaps the costs involved, procedures and time will dissuade some from trying! ;-)

Sorry about my ranting.... It's been only a few days from my NOA1 and I am already impatient!!! I want my NOA2!!!!!!
