No snail mail/email yet, so don't know what all these touches mean :unsure: !Thanks for geting me approved LoTo! Your approval was faster than USCIS!! I wish you were our adjudicator..LOL!! But definitely I will like to hear from USCIS as well!! either an approval or an RFE!!

-Benoy

Snail mail will show up in 3 to 5 days time after the consecutive touches for few people without any email confirmation / USCIS website status.

what I meant - There is a possibility!

But I wish you good luck for your NOA2, Benoy :thumbs:

Loto

It is part of Indian menu :star:

Quite a few people got the same email, though we didn't. No one seems to be quite sure whether it means you're approved or not. It may be wise to call NVC to see if they have issued you with a case number. If they have - you're approved.

I think when we july filers are transferred to TSC, the one who filed later than us, are on the top of the pile of application.People at TSC might be reviewing the application that is on the top. That is reason why we are left out. Nothing is fair in this world. I am losing patience. Help us all god.

We were told:

That it was transferred to a local office to speed up processing.

But...

My gut says it hasn't been transferred anywhere - just to another department....
