Soon we will be starting a 12 step program for us addicts.....

I didn't check that often until I was getting close to the estimated approval time and the rfe thingggy...

Now, every hour or more, but when I am out of the office and return, the first thing I check is the website. When i wake up in the morning with the coffee brewing, I check the status also..... Thinking enough time has passed, maybe I will see an early christmas present.

I guess, it is a normal "addiction." But you don't need any treatment for this addiction, as it goes away after your case is approved.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

You are sick and require counseling! Have you noticed how everyone acts around here? We're all sick... Get out while you can! LOL!

No seriously, it's extremely normal to check several thousand times a day. We're all in anticipation of every aspect of this process that we are forced to endure. Just try not to let it drive you MADDD!

Good luck to you on your journey and I look forward to reading about your upcoming success stories.

Your case can be touched at any time. However, do not despair if you don't get one for a period of time.

Read through the board, you will come to realize that you will see "touches", a few weeks go by, nothing.

Then BAM, approved. Be confident, in that you were touched early on in your process, which is a very good sign.

Good luck.

Ive seen posts where members are asking at what time of day might I be touched by USCIS!!!! Is this realy something new now I have to be concerned about? I mean, Now I have to check hourly or ?

I never thought I would be so obsessed with something. It has really distracted me from my work. As soon as I see an NOA2 I have no idea what I will do with myself. Maybe try to be productive and learn a new project? who knows....for now its check email, check the uscis, and jump into and read some crazy thread killing time while i keep looking to see if someone else may have gotten an approval to convince me they are working up there.
