Hi Guys,

Didnt see this thread till now so Just throwing our hat into the ring!

We sent the package off to the CSC on the 3rd April and received our NOA1 on the 12th.

We are now just waiting on one of these mysterious "touches"!

Anyones case been touched? If so, how does it appear online?

If you sign up at the USCIS website (using your EAC case #), you will see the data of last update. When this date changes, your file has been touched. Mine hasn't been touched since shortly after NOA1. My last touch date is strangely January 1, 2009. But I KNOW that this will be the week (or the day!) that they give me that Final Touch - Approval!

November 19, 2007 - Met

November 25, 2008 - Engaged

November 25, 2009 - Married

November 24, 2011 - Baby due!

I just wish we'd receive our NOA1 already. I'm being obsessive (as I'm sure you all understand), and I'd like to be able to check our status online without having to constantly prod him with "Did you get an email from them yet?! Did anything show up in the mail?!"

I'm sure I'm driving him crazy, though happily, he hasn't commented yet.

If you sent in a check you can get your EAC number from the back of the check. They have to write it on there when they cashed it. I was so impatient that once my check was cashed, I called up Bank of America customer service to have them read to me the numbers on the back. Sure enough one was the EAC and I was able to check the status online. There wasn't any new info online though, just that they had received our petition but still, it made me feel like I was doing something. :)

Good Luck everyone!

I am already starting to worry that my check has not been cashed yet considering my I-129F was sent nearly 10 days ago...

Has anyone else had their check cashed and/or received a NOA1 who filed around the same time as me?

My lawyer has mailed my I-129 to CSC around same time. They have not cashed my check either. Patience is advice. GOOD LUCK!!!! :)

Finally my check is cashed today. One step closer hahahah :star:
