I am little confused. I called USCIS CSC on thursday 2/14 using the RFE trick. As expected, the "Last Updated" field in my online USCIS case portfolio was updated the next day. However, on sunday it read 2/17/2008 and today it changed to 2/18/2008. Does this mean my case is actually being processed by someone at CSC?

Thanks,

CG

What's the RFE trick you are taling about?

Ha Ha.

Sorry, but every time I mention that, I get the same question. The famous RFE trick is a way to talk directly to the service center where you case is being processed. When you call the main USCIS customer service number, follow the prompts as if you had received a Request for Evidence for you case. The system will ask you for your case number and will then transfer you to the appropriate service center.

Don't read too much into it, someone could just be glancing at it OR someone could actually be doing something with it! It would be nice to be able to get the hopes up but to be on the safe side, you don't want them crushed...

Wish you & your loved one all the best...

My "Last Updated" field changed again today. That is the fourth time in five days. Is there anything that would cause the date to update besides calling using the RFE trick or a person at USCIS looking at the file?
