AAAHHHHHH EXCELLENT!!! see we are all close to eachother!

okay I definitely need a break now.

:mellow: Not all of us of course, i just meant Paris and Jelena and some others that are getting the same touches so it seems.

I feel terrible however for folks that are waiting way longer. This immigration stuff just sucks.

Paris, that's great that you got touched again!i'm so glad that something is actually happening with our applications as Catt said even if I get RFE that wouldn't be so bad because we would be close to our approvals.

Yeah, I was so happy, I forgot to click on case number to see if approval or a RFE, just still said case pending, etc etc.. I only wish we knew what all these touches mean. ????? :idea:

Paris (L)

Truly happy!!!

New life, new adventures, and a new attitude.

I do to Jeca, and usually my feelings are correct. Something is going to happen, I hope its a approval.

Keep fingers crossed, and stay in touch, I will be at my desk today, mounds of customs paperwork to go thru today, and entries to submit for clearances, U.S. Customs will just love me today, ha ha.

Yeah I have the same feeling. I have loads of work to finish too and I can't concentrate anymore.

I just keep telling my colleagues we got touched on our visastuff and they just look at me like you're crazy lady (i find this visa stuff is difficult to imagine when you're not actually in it).

Hey guys ...This is my thought ....After all these "touches " for all filers in jan 08 ....they send some to "Approval " dept some to "RFE " etc.... where notices are prepared and sent to petitioners ....Until that time you see ...Case pending status...

any thoughts....may be someone call VSC... :P

Yes, I believe that is how Cornishman and Cris.luiza knew immediately an REF letter was on its way.

I'm sure we'll know should an RFE be issued, if at all it is, I wouldn't worry about this.

Jon, i'm real sorry you've been waiting this long. This kinda waiting period, and the long discrepancy between cases, is just wrong.

Hey John, if you look at other people's timelines you'll see that in many cases they got two touches and then after some 20 days or a month they got approved.I know that you have been waiting already for too long but hang in there!

I got touched today!

thanks.

i have my congressman's office on the case. checking and putting on the pressure. they are really great(and free).

my lawyer just took my money and thats about it.

Congressman is making another call to see where my case is in the "review" stage.

Gotta call him later to see what he has found out.

Probably stuck in some clerical bull. Who knows :unsure: .

Amazing tha I'm still here.
