Patterns for approvals after being touched (i-129f)

I know I'm getting my hopes up high, but it gives all of us something to think about instead of clicking refresh every 35 seconds.

Anyone been on here long enough to track some kind of consistency between the last touch and the approval of a i129f?

For instance, say it got touched on 11/01 (maybe that was event he last of several touches), when would you expect either an approval or RFE?

My file's been touched 3 days in a row since it was transfered to CSC, but nothing yet. According to some of the posters here, i've concluded that without any unforeseen problems, it should take between 3-7 weeks after the CSC transfer. of course this is based on limited data, and i'm mainly looking at people who are probably part of the new restructuring process meaning recent approvals/submissions. Anyone agree or disagree?

I do not think anyone has determined any kind of rhyme or reason for the frequency or lack of frequency of touches.

YMMV

Yea, unfortunatly I dont think uscis uses any form of logical process. I know many people report a few touches in a row just prior to being approved. Mine, however was touchless for about a month then BAM, approved. Seems to be a bit different for everyone.

There is absolutely no reliable pattern, and btw I am now 2 months post tranfer to CSC... still waiting. Touches can make you feel good because something is going on, but you can't rely on them.
