Got my NOA1 in the mail yesterday, with an issue date of May 25th (they got my I-129F on May 19, so not bad turnaround there).

Got touched on May 31st and I didn't even notice because I didn't have my case number yet (NOA1 still in the mail).

Those sneaky punks, touching people while they're waiting for snailmail NOA1s...that's nawdy.

I am not a practicing attorney. I have a law degree and I passed the bar exam, but am not admitted to practice because I got a job in legal publishing and haven't gotten around to applying for my license yet. Publishing is great, but it does not make you qualified to give legal advice. So I don't. I just want to get married to my fella, which is why I'm here! If you need legal help, seek the advice of a licensed attorney.

I think it's fairly common to have a touch right after your NOA1. Many people had them and never noticed.

But it's always great to be touched. Congratulations! You're on your way!

Touched is a term that used to describe when a date change occurs this happens when USCIS looks, moves, or takes action on your petition. The way that you can find this is to go to the uscis website, on the right you will see Hot topics go to Case Status & Processing Dates, then under Case Status Portfolio with Updates via Email create a customer account. You will need the receipt # (can get it by receiving your NOA1 in the mail, or if you used a personal check you can obtain the number after the check is cashed). You will be able to see if you've been touched once you’ve opened an Portfolio.

maybe in Vermont. I'm not even sure what touched is. Is it an e-mail? A letter? What does it say? Or do someone go to your house and touch you? :lol: jk But seriously what is it? How is it?

Anyway congrats!!! (F)
