Our I-129F wasn't ever touched and it was in the black hole known as Nebraska for 146 days before we got our NOA2 !!

Touches are by no means a guarunteed part of the process and even if you are touched, it could mean as little as your file being moved from one pile to another. Although comparing your own progress to others is helpful in some ways, every single case is unique and therefore are processed at different speeds. You really could drive yourself :wacko: if you measure your own progress against everyone elses. Work on the premis that no news is good news and sit tight for your NOA2.

Good luck

Mark :)

Yes, that is what everyone refers to when they say "touched" it could be when your case was updated, or it was given to another person. It doesn't always mean anything significant. Some people(like myself) never had anything then I got my approval e-mail. Others got a "touch" and were approved a day or two later.

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
