Ooops. Hey, how do we add our timeline? And, what is "touched?"

Thanks. Good luck to all.

Add your timeline = go to "Settings", "Profile", "Change Signature" and manually type in your record.

"Touched" = when USCIS updates your case on-line.

That's a good news. It seems they've started sending out interview letters to March filers early. Cant wait for mine; How i wish mine should be transferred to CSC to avoid any kind of interview. Anyway, good luck to you all.

Did you see any LUDs or touches before receiving your interview letter? Thanks

No actually I didn't.... My I-485 and I-765 were touched a few days after the biometrics .. I did my biometrics on 04/02 and my applications

got touched on 04/05. The I-131 and I-130 were last touched when I received all my NOA's... so it is kind of weird.... but I know the updates or lack thereof, is not always reliable...

Congratulations Fabulous02 It seems that processes for March Filers are starting to move

Thanks icepeck!! No updates on my portafolio cases also, no emails nothing, the NOA arrived with no notice.

Good luck all!!! Blessings...

where do you get the "touched" notifications?

Are they from the email/text service you can sign up for?

Hello Hello,

My interview is about 2 weeks from today, and I stop bothering to check my case on USCIS web.

There is only one person who received EAD before the interview in Feb filers.

There is no update from March 23rd.

I-130 - Acceptance

I-485 - Initial Review

I-765 - Initial Review

In recent study, it still shows average time to receive GC (family base) is 3-6 months ecept San Diego (60 days, wow).

I was targeting 3 months anyway, so can't complain my situation.

And it seems like other March filers also received the interview letter, so it should be good indication.

Human manual works faster than system update!!!

Hi, Jscoope

Unless you filed I-751 along with I-130 and I-485, you would not receive email / text notification.

However you can still sign up at USCIS website to set this up afer you receive NOAs, there are receipt numbers on each applications.

I did sign up, but never received any updated email nor text.

Good Luck!!

Yeah I signed up for the email updates (no text though) after I received my NOA's but haven't received any updates yet. Everything is still in "Initial Review", I was just wondering how people are getting these "touched" notifications.

Well, after you signed-in into your uscis account, click on the menu "sign up for updates". Go thru your info, make correction if necessary then submit. After that click on my portfolio, keep an eye on the dates under "Last Updated" the date will change whenever they touch any of your cases. That's how you know you've been touched my a stranger USCIS.

You can also sign up for email and text updates for your case by using the text/email button.

Hi All,

Does anyone have any experience in Houston ASC? We are scheduled on May 6th for our biometrics. Can we just walk-in before that? Or what happens if I miss the appointment? Thanks.

Hi Ninnie,

I am one of the April AOS filers, and my local office is in Orlando too.

Would like to keep in touch with you.

Thank you!

that's nice..I think you can try walk in as long as you are early..Most ASC offices opens at 8am. It's better to try done thinking about "what if" later. At least if they won't allow it, at least you've tried.

I still believe doing walk ins early help your application be processed sooner.
