I got another touch today. I am surprised people are working at sunday too. By the way, I am wondering how many touches it need to get approved? Initailly, I was worried about not having touches at all. Now I am kinda worried if it will draw RFE. I hope not. My 5 months mark is appraoching. I read from others in another link that special cases are transferred to USCIS and the transfer is not normal. I am kinda worried about my case right now as it has been transferred from TSC to USCIS. I have not wanted anything so bad than approval in my life. God help us all

People are not working on Sunday.

But, computer batch process will run on weekends too.

No, not as yet. I have a gut feeling we haven't been transferred out of Texas, just moved to a different department. Does anyone know categorically that our cases have been moved to local USCIS offices?

I agree with u, i was thinking our cases didnt transferred, it just moved to a different department

I got another touch today. However, it does not show the previous touches in the USCIS wbsites. God, why is it taking so long to get approved? I am feeling like I am in roller coster. No updates in my case yet, just a touch. I demand approval for all July filers. July month is a lucky 7, it was supposed to be lucky month. Let's hope we get approval within this week.
