If you go to the account you created on the USCIS website and the "Last Updated" date changes, then that is a touch.

I know that I don't post much, but I log into this site several times a day. I have been able to get through this whole process by knowing that there are so many other people out there in my situation. Anyway, I thought I would report this info. I just got a touch. Now my heart is beating so fast and my hands are shaking so much that I can barely type this post. Of course, I am probably being paranoid, but I am worried about an RFE. Just thought I'd let everyone know of another status change....and perhaps (crossing my fingers) an approval to follow. I've never received an e-mail notice letting me know of the update. I went to the site and checked just now for the hell of it. I had a really rough day today, and despite my fears of receiving an RFE for some silly thing, the touch has really given me hope.

I filed on 7/21 and the NOA1 was dated 7/30.

There is no activity today and I found this article on CNN today and found it rather amusing/ignorant. Any ideas from anyone else? Don't we live in America, the melting pot?!

http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/12/04/navarrette/index.html

It is just another example of the small-minded Americans (not all of us). During the last election, politicians and the media used the gay marriage issue to distract us from the real problems going on in this country. This election they are using immigration. Unfortunately, the dumb ones will fall for it again.

You're dead on, Steph!!! ...Damn shame though ...'Land of the Free' and some people are afraid to think for themselves

Gill

It really is a shame. "Land of the Free" is a loose term nowadays. Don't get me wrong, we are still better off then many, but we are a far cry from what we were. What is forgotten is that we are all immigrants of some form or another. I am not sure why this political generation feel entitled to shut the country doors now. Who do they think they are? Not that I want to go on a rant here....

I think the primary point of Navarette's article was that people fear that immigrants will change the current culture. It is true today and it was true over 200 years ago. He quoted Benjamin Franklin and others who said things that were just as narrow minded, bigotted and anti immigrant as what is being said today.

Despite the fact that this country was built by immigrants and our culture is stronger and more vibrant because of their influence, human nature does not evolve much over the years. We still fear change and are reluctant to welcome large groups of people who are "not like us".

I think you are all missing the point. Back in the hey day of immigration, immigrants came to this country to make it their new home. To embrace the "American dream" to its fullest and to build lives, familys, and homes here. The illegal aliens (they are NOT immigrants) who are comming to the country now are not here to embrace the American dream. They do not make their homes here, their homes are elsewhere along with their families, which, coincidentally is where most of their money goes. To call the people who take advantage of the system like this immigrants is a slap in the face to every person who immigrated to this country or immigrates to this country legally. Just MHO, and YMMV.

Congratulations to Ben & Miku (osakaben3000). Sent July 4. NOA1 July 17. Approved Nov 30. That makes the November total 88.

I am obviously not against immigration, I enthusiastically endorse it, for the people who want to come here and embrace a new way of life. When we visit our significant others countries, we do not go to their country and impose our culture on them. People who come here illegally, are many times imposing their culture on us. How many of your significant others speak a language other than english? Did any of them refuse to learn english when they come here? My guess is probably not, because they want to embrace a new life and a new culture. I am not seeing much of that behavior from the illegal population.

Who is imposing their culture? Are they forcing you to watch Telemundo or something?

I think what she means is that illegals come here and expect, nay, demand that you speak their language (often spanish) and don't bother learning English, or doing anything to really 'better' themselves while being here. (Which should be a tall order since they're here illegally anyway).

Our loved ones coming here legally...my assumption is all of them are more than willing to learn English and the "American Way" to live here, and that's the way it should be.

Darn, I thought i was special I hear you, it feels kind of hopeless and endless ... but tomorrow I am calling my senator and asking for the inquiry. I hope at least they can get a real answer. I think I'll try the ombudsman's complaint form in Amrsnowangel's june filers thread too. I am not going to bother to call VSC right now - I can see them telling me there up to may 15 or something. YEAH RIGHT!

Touch me VSC!! I didn't mean it when I called you worthless slackers and %^%&*&&$#@!
