Update:

4. Received hardcopy NOA1's in the mail on Dec. 19.

5. Received Biometrics appointment letter on Dec. 19.

6. Biometrics appointment date: Jan. 12, 2012.

Interesting because I noticed that another December filer filed 4 days before me, but got a biometrics appointment date 9 days before mine!

Great idea for a thread! :)

1. Mailed AOS on Dec. 7 (evening) by courier

2. Package signed for by J. Chyba on Dec. 9 (morning)

3. E-notifications received by text and email on Dec. 14 (evening)

I hope filing during the holiday season won't cause a delay! Anyone know one way or another?

Hey Robert&Karen, what do you mean in your signature, when you say "touched"?

It means they looked at my case, per the online reference page. Maybe they researched me, did a background check, or maybe they were just sorting things. But it means a real live person touched my case with their hands and eyes, and things are moving forward. It's a way to see that there is indeed life when things go so slowly.

Wow, that sounds like something I'd love to keep track of. By the "online reference page" do you mean the USCIS.gov page? I have input my receipt numbers in there, but all it says is that the applications are under "initial review" --there's nothing about whether it has been touched or not. Am I looking at the right thing?

Yes, that is correct. After you login but before you click for the details, the front page with the case number will show a date under "last updated", that is the date they last touched it.
