MARCH FILERS!!!

[Jas S 0]

Ok I just found this great site and this great post. Count me in as well. I filled I-130 in late March and I filled for I-129 in mid April. Just doing the waiting game and kind of frustrated.

Hey what does "Touched" mean?

Our story:

Me met in November of 06, got married on Jan 3rd 07. Filed for everything on March 23rd. Now we are without eachother and just waiting. I am a US Citizen and she is a Indian Citizen.

touched means that your something has been done to your case, and they remeber to update the date on the website

in your portfolio. Set up an account on the USCIS site with your reciept number. Also Captain Ewok explains the whole touch thing in one of his posts.

Hope that helps....

Ok great, thanks for the info. on touched. I logged into my profile on USCIS and it showed the following:

05/29/2007 I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN

05/30/2007 I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

I guess those dates are considered my file being "touched".

Elmira,

I admit.....I have no self-control. I call NVC everyday....sometimes twice. ( ) I promise to post as soon as they say my case is there and I'm sure you'll be there at the same time since we were approved at about the same.

We tried to call one time to NVC, and lady told us "Sorry we didn't recieve your case yet, and please be aware we recieve approved cases from USCIS after 90 days of approval date". I said OK, but so wanted to tell her that she is wrong

My Fiance is away from Florida now, so he will be back on 3 July, and if he doesn't find NOA-2 and NVC letter in his snail mail box we will start worry... but now we are not going to call them till 3 July I will let you know if we have any news

I dont think I am actually gonna call the NVC,all the ppl I know got their Pack3 which then let them know that the Embassy had recieved the petition.

Hi guys.. I just finished talking to a representative at USCIS and she was very very nice and helpful. I wish all representatives were like her. Anyways, she said that they are kinda behind but not too much and they are doing their best especially us march filers with april NOA1s. She said that if everything that they need has been supplied and wouldn't need RFEs then we should get our applications adjudicated or approved hopefully by the end of the month or early July. I really do hope that we get our NOA2s soon. It's the suspense that kills us..not knowing when. Good luck to as all.

Yeah that sounds great. What's next after we receive our NOA2's? Can anyone describe what happens after that and what the estimated time line would be? Thanks

Your case will be sent to NVC and then forwarded to Consulate (Embassy..I get the 2 confused..lol) Then the Consulate (Embassy ?) sends your packets and then interview. Some people get caught in AR at the NVC level and some are caught before or after the interview. Some don't get get caught in it at all. This is just a quick run down of the process. There's really no way of getting an idea about timeframes. You might get abetter idea form others that have gone through the same country. You should check those threads.
