January filers VSC lottery, who gets the jackpot next?

[Robyn-n-Kris 72]

We got touched today!!!

At least SOMEBODY is doing SOMETHING with it, aside from using it as a coaster (I hope!).

I hope this means that approval is on its way. I saw a February filer got an approval today - amazing!!! Good luck everyone, I hope it's a great week for all of you!

I know.. i am still floored by how fast that person's NOA2 came through. If only us all!!!

Awww dbears you are too too sweet! The good news was that the RFE was over something minor. I forgot to check a tiny "yes" or "no" box on the I-129F. I couldn't believe it and felt like such moron considering I had gone over all of the documents several times before submitting. Oh well - I'm only human. I signed the paper immediately and sent it next day air. It was received on Saturday (Thank you to the mail room for being open there!) It was very comforting to hear you say that people responding to RFE's get back on track - I was curious and worried about how much this would slow down our process.

I just wish they could have sent me an email or something explaining why all the touches (my case status online never said they were requesting more info). When I got the RFE it all made sense.

Good luck to everyone else too!!!

Consider yourself really lucky coz some received RFE after several months, 3-5 months for some, can you believe that?!!!... We've had 5 touches so far, last one was feb. 24, no approval yet.. and now, i am beginning to think that there was something wrong with our papers ... but i hope if we get rfe, they should just send it now and not wait 3months. That would be better than just guessing and wondering why all those touches.

I will be praying you get your approval soonest.

psiprez, I am crossing my fingers that the recent touch means NOA2 is coming out for you.

I saw the feb filer too, very lucky indeed.

I am praying this will be a good week for all of us.... i can take the waiting, the wondering if our 5 previous touches means there's something wrong with our papers is what's really bugging me... i'd even welcome an rfe if only they'd send it right away, that would be better than be left wondering without knowing anything.

Well, in God's perfect time...

Good luck to us all.... sooner or later we will all have our answers.

Do many touches followed by nothing necessarily mean that an RFE was or will be issued? Do some people get no touches and then..walla.. accepted?

No, it doesn't necessarily mean an RFE. It could just be somebody moving our file from one part of the desk to another. Touches could mean nothing at all... but it could also mean something.

Touches sometimes precedes an approval or an RFE... but there are also some approvals which did't even have any touch at all.... if only this process will be more transparent.

Hey, grandoner, your time might be coming soon, there's a feb filer already approved.

I wish you all the luck.

We got touched once (I suppose to put our file together), and then nothing until we were approved....and I've seen people touched often that were approved...it seems to be fairly random...

Touch or no touch, I just hope and pray that this will be a very good week for everybody still waiting.

God speed.

Touched again today... hmmmm.

My file was touched again today as well - but I am relieved since I had that RFE! At least I know they've put the info in my file and it has returned to the working pile now.
