Hey fellow VJers!

Ok... I do not mean to be flooding the forum with threads...but honestly can someone who has been in a similar situation explain to me what is going on with my I-130 petition?? I filed it at VSC on Feb 1 of this year...and it got transferred May 11th......and ever since...I have received MANY touches...but none of them had significant messages...like today I just checked USCIS and got another "last updated" date of 05/29/2007...and its funny because I called CSC using the trick...and they said that my case was still pending with no RFEs or anything :blink::blink: So either I am going crazy...or CSC thinks my paperwork makes a GREAT paper weight...hope everyone else hears something soon because I am going nuts waiting...take care :D

whatever it takes...or how my heart breaks...i will be right here waiting for you... 636.gif

I hadn't received any touches, until I did the RFE trick and called them. Then I got touches 2 days in a row on both my I-130 and I-129F. I think if you call and ask questions about your petitions, you will get touched as a result of the call. So that's probably what a couple of your touches came from.

Wife's visa journey:

03/19/07: Initial mailing of I-129F.

07/07/11: U.S. Citizenship approved and Oath Ceremony!

MIL's visa journey:

07/26/11: Initial mailing of I-130.

05/22/12: Interview passed!
