everytime the date under the UPDATED column changes, that means it was "touched." But you need your case number first in order to see anything, cmnb. well, just wait for your NOA1 then find it on the USCIS website, add it to your portfolio and see what the last UPDATED date is..

congrats on your baby, shiri.. babies are always blessings

I am sorry that is even a consideration for you.... but I am not sure it is. I swear that is half the "test" to see if we can make it....

Rajaa while on the one hand its comforting to know that I am not the only one going through that feeling of sadness and on the other it seems like a long..long...really long time since things have moved in any direction for me. Your path has changed from mine now as you've sent your I-129F. I had checked the K-3 timelines in my country and it all sucks...especially this Administrative Process threat. Now it sure seems like a huge test of nerves and when you too young to be patient, it gets worse. Allaah knows. I do not know how to deal with this process anymore to be honest. Sorry everyone else, I do not mean to bring you down with this post but I am getting impatient now :angry:

A good friend here applied for her H-4 visa which a non-immigrant visa for the spouse of the person having an H-1 (working visa) and she had her interview back in February. They sent her back with a blue slip asking for more documents and the embassy has kept her passport. Since then she hasn't heard from the Consular officer and when she called the embassy she was informed that they have not reached a decision yet. Its frightful.

S_AL_ - folks here have always been very supporting and they are the ones who could best relate to you. i would suggest talking to someone who has done K-3/CR-1 process from pakistan recently and see what they have to provide to you as feedback. i am just a little skeptical about the timelines that VJ offers. i am not sure what the source of this information is. but....just hang in there....things will move on..

here are my timelines:

05/27/08-sent I-130 packet to chicago lockbox

05/29/08 - received in Chiacago

06/09/08 - check cashed, case recieved an pending, and was able to view case online

06/10/08 - case updated

06/11/08 - case updated

06/12/08 - case updated

xx/xx/xx - received hard copy of NOA1

i am not sure if the date that displays in the "last updated" column is the same as what a lot of people call "touched"? can anyone please clarify...thanks.

CMNB I really appreciate your post. Sadly I do not know anyone else going through this immigration process here. Those who are at the forum are hard to locate. Most are stuck in AP and others have already gone through it or waiting for approval.

You can shift your timeline to the 'signature' section on the MY CONTROL page. Then your timeline will appear like the rest of us. You can adjust font size and color there and update it accordingly.

Yes the change in date under the Last Updated part is what one refers to as a touch. Now that your check has just been cashed, they are probably shifting your petition to your service center. All the best to you and everyone else.

Regards,

Sara.
