Hi All,

I am hoping for a bit of clarification. What exactly does it mean when your case is "touched" - does it mean that it has just been looked at, and they're notifying you of that? We sent our I-129F in very recently, (November 13th)- we received our NOA1 on November 16th..and then on the USCIS website it says that it was last updated on November - does this mean that we were "touched" on this date? Also, I have heard that it helps to phone the USCIS and nag them about your case- I don't really see how this would help?? Any input on this?

Thanks all!

Yes, the last update would be the last touch. It doesn't always mean something positive, but it can be - it just means that there has been some sort of activity on your file, even if it is just moving it from one place to another.

As far as nagging the USCIS, I think that's one of the funniest things I've read today :) If you call the 1-800 number (known around here as the misinformation line) - they can only tell you what you can already see online. They can't really do anything for you.

Good luck with everything!
