Dear all,

How might I know if my application has been 'touched'? I often see it on here, especially on people's signatures, but I can't tell whether my application has been touched or not.

I have subscribed to receiving case status updates via Email. Might it be that my application simply hasn't been touched?

Mmm. How do I find out when the case date has changed? *confused*

Well, you'll have to remember the date that was showing the last time you logged in. :unsure:

And that is why some of us write the last date in our signature blocks because our memories are not that good

YMMV

Look at the date where it says last updated and when that date moves but the case status stays the same it means that it has been touched

I think touched is when someone picks it up, looks at it, puts it down on the desk, takes a sip of coffee, makes a few personal calls, goes to lunch, comes back, types something in the computer, and then shoves it back in the pile.

So does it mean that eventhough you have been touched recently,they do not have any decisions yet re your case? Or does it means, that something good is coming your way - which is approval!!!???

It's hard to determine if it is something good or bad. But, at least when you're touched, it's good to know your application is actually being looked at, not sitting somewhere idle. I guess there's nothing anyone can do, but wait to see what USCIS sends you.
