First of all - 'touched' isn't a USCIS term - it's really a VJ term and it means your file/case's bar code was scanned/wanded (could mean it was moved, looked at or otherwise something happened). The only way you would know you've been 'touched' is by seeing the Last Updated date change - each time there's a new date, you've been touched.

You do not get an email for 'touches' - only for NOA (Notice of Action). :thumbs:

Wow, this is the answer I've been looking for. I though when you singed up for updates it also sent you an e-mail when you were touched. My date hasnt changed since I sent it so I figuerd thats why I hadnt received any e-mails. But I should still keep checking for touches, although I know it wont be a long time until something really happens.
