Hi Vismaster.. I received the hardcopy in the mail April 16 (monday).. in the letter (NOA1) i sais RECEVED DATE APRIL 6, 2007 and NOTICE DATE IS APRIL 12, 2007... so is APRIL 3 MY RECEIPT TIME? Thanks.. and so when should I call them again? Because I called yesterday and the person I spoke with said it still pending; not much help at all. Thanks..

OOPS TYPO.. I MEAN APRIL 6.. not APRIL 3

April 3rd. I would think that late this week maybe next week...hopefully. Everyone seems to be getting touches now around the time they are approved so I would watch that....but it's not a sure thing. Many people never receive touches at all.

I MADE A TYPO ERROR.. I MEAN APRIL 6 NOT APRIL 3 HEHEHE.. SORRY.. YEAH BUT DEFINITELY I'LL CALL THEM MONDAY AGAIN..I HOPE I'LL GET SOME UPDATE OR ATLEAST A TOUCH THIS WEEK..OR EVEN BETTER.. NOA2..

Yeah, the 6th...sorry. I think it'll be soon. Good luck! It's a wonderful feeling. All the stress, frustration, and worry that you have right now.....will be gone and forgotten as soon as you receive it. Kinda like giving birth...you forget the pain when the baby comes...lol In the end, it's all worth it to be with your sweetie.

Try calling the NVC direct, that's what I did. I just said that I was getting confusing info from CSC and I wanted to check if my case arrived yet. They asked me for my recipt #, Beneficiary's name and DOB. I never received an NOA2 and my case has already gone through NVC and is on it's way to the consulate. The number is 603-334-0700. Press 1 for Eng and 5 for a rep. I called around 8:45 EST and only waited about 10 minutes to speak to someone.

Took me about 3 minutes to get through to the NVC.

When I gave the lady my case number, all she could tell me was it wasn't there. CSC must still have it, unless the touch we got was it being transferred out to another SC

OK GUYS I DON'T WANT TO GET MY HOPES UP BUT AT THE SAME TIME I FEEL GOOD AND PRAYING.. FOR THE FIRST TIME I GOT TOUCHED (JUNE 20, 2007).. BUT THE CASE IS STILL THE SAME.. PENDING.. NOTHING NEW JUST A TOUCH.. AND I'M GUESSING THE REASON WAS BECAUSE I CALLED A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO (JUNE 18, 2007) AND DID THE RFE TRICK. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME ANY POSITIVE THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS TOUCH.. I KNOW OTHERS ARE GETTING MORE TOUCHES JUST ABOUT EVERYDAY THAN I DO.. THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT..

By the looks of your timeline, the touch should be something significant. Some of us started getting our touches AFTER we had been approved. I bet you'll find out something good.

OH YEAH! Congrats!

Good luck to you as well.

A call using the RFE trick will result in a "touch" only if you get through to the second level (not just the CR that answers the phone). But the touch would occur the same day as the call, so this might be something more... Good luck

urge to race.. so you're saying since the touch wasn't on the day that i called.. this could mean something good? Thanks for the info and i wish everyone here and all of you are in my prayers as well..

Here is the deal....there have been A LOT of threads all over VJ about what a "TOUCH" means. Do a search and you will find TONS topics all asking this same question.

Look at my timeline....a touch when I applied and no touches until I got an E-mail saying I my NOA2 was approved.

Others in this thread have been touched quite often in between their NOA1 and NOA2.

Don't even bother wondering what a "TOUCH" indicates if you want to keep your sanity....just keep an eye on your timeline and the approval dates of others. If it exceeds by a couple weeks, then you might want to call and ask...but a "TOUCH" is just a tease...good or bad.
