You need to set yourself up an account at the USCIS website and turn on email notification. Go here and click on the "Want to register" link: https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/logi...id=bLpgFVaRf238

All you need is the WAC number on your NOA1.

I got touched on February 2.

Did you get notification of the touch by email?

Im a fellow January filer, and i think that everyone should be able to show there excitement no matter what service center they use, don't be salty just because yours is taking longer than others. My packet went to California as well, waiting is just apart of the process, and some will wait longer than others. noone is bragging, they are just happy and excited, as you will be too when you get your NOA2. Please give everyone the same curtesy and respect that you would want, when your day comes

Nope, just checked my case status online. I think they only email you with NOA2s etc...

Well thanks for chastising me! I hope that most people could the humor I was portrying in my comment.
Well I guess you were not one of them. If you read the comment and did not detect humor, well I apologize if you were offended. But, as I stated we are alll adults, and the rational that I would have a problem or be angry with anyone that could speed up their process to be with their SO is ofc ourse.

I was merely displaying humor in stating, that I wish I (we, other service centers could move along as expediciously as Vermont.

My comment was not meant to be anything negative and I won't allow you to label is as such.

So please don';t make judgemental comments on things you don;'t understand, instead ask how is was meant. Once again we are all adults, and my mother is not logging in the VJ.

and also before you go around being so critical, add your timeline and participate 100% in the process.

Don't just sit on the side-lines like an inocent by-stander. Because, if you are not actively participating in the entire VCJ process, my comment could not be undertood by you.

How would you know if its a touched? We've been checking our case status online too but it hadn't changed from the first time we checked it?

Thanks.

you'll see the date change.

Lucho no email just "touched."

Yay, my check was cashed and my NOA1 issued!!! Now if only it could have gone to Vermont...

ok this vermont talk is getting to me. What makes vermont so much faster? Non lazy workers there? Or Less applications to go thru?

Heehee.. Vermont, if you have noticed, the countries they are assisting just have FEW petitioners among other states.. What confusing me is that what the NCS and TSC doin if they just forward all the petition to CSC, just bumming workers? Hee.. Idle huh..

Meaning if what was written in my status online is something like this: On January 24, 2007, we received this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E), and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow blah, blah, blah; the date you were pertaining is that Jan. 24, 2007? Thanks.

a touch will not change the date that the Service Center recieved your petition, it will change the date that says LAST UPDATED.



(fwaguy, i will never doubt you again)

If you can view the back of your check online it will tell you what service center processed it. I know it can be difficult to see. I had to print mine out before I could begin to decipher it, but sure enough there was stamp that had the word.."California".

We had a touch yesterday!

BUMP BUMP BUMP

Anymore touches for January's filers. It gives me hope

Hello January fillers here we are




4 january 2007- sent petition to nebraska
12 january 2007 - NOA1 from California Service Center
still waiting....

Based on the progress of November filers, I think we January filers are now at the waiting stage with little to no activity. In about 2 months, we should start seeing more touches and NOA2s. Of course, if things go faster for any of us that would be great!

Good luck to all of us waiting and let's hope for no RFEs!

Yes, I'm just being ansy sorry....I was hoping for a touch, but no touches can be good too, too many and that could mean the big R^% I dare not write it lolol....

Good luck to all of us!

I hear you lion_lioness! I'm feeling antsy myself. It's tough just sitting here waiting for a couple months while we're separated from our loved one. Hope things go faster than expected!

Hello people. I'm another January filier. Does anyone else hate waiting? This is going to drive me crazy.

Good luck to all!!!!!!!!

No touches here!

BUMP BUMP BUMP LOLOL

nothing no touches nada....here's to another week of checking..

good luck everyone!

I filed in Jan. as well. I recieved my NOA1 Jan. 17th.
They stated they are sending it from Texas to California.
Last touched Jan. 19th.
Nothing since then. But yeah Cant Wait!

Bump bump bump....FEBRUARY WE'RE HALFWAY THERE!!!!

Any touches??

No touches here either...

I think I would be alittle surprised in anybody from January got 'touched' yet, although stranger things have happened I guess...

Hi everyone, I have been on pins and needles, because I had to file my K1 with a waiver (due to a previously filed K1). It's still pretty much new territory and I was afraid of massive RFE's or even a denial.

I woke up to an email from USCIS our case was approved. What a relief - and without any touches or RFE's.

I know its VSC and I don't mean to boast or anything, just with the waiver and all I was really scared. So I wanted to say for any others that might have filed with a waiver (since the new IMBRA law). That you can get approved.

Rock on NSC and CSC...I'm routing for all of us!!!!

Don't worry, you are not boasting. It isn't your fault that Vermont is so much faster than California. The rest of us will just continue to wait. Good luck to you...

I seconded.

Thanks Wissooner and AJ,

I'm still here and will be routing for my fellow January filers so keep me posted!!!

We'll get through this together and probably around the same time. VSC being fast is great, but Amman schedules interviews 10 months out!!!

We should start getting more January action come March for you guys - I hope so!!!!

WOO-HOO!

Congrats girl!

Yep, looking forward to some NOA2 action come next month! I am going to Jamaica to see my sweetie March 8-18!!!!

*sigh*

hehe

Congratulations

I'm not expecting any sort of touch or reply until April -- I just hope it's not an RFE!

Hello everyone. My sweetie and I send in our packet on January 3, 2007 to the California Service Center. They received it on January 5, 2007. Our NOA has a notice date of January 9, 2007. We are just like everyone else well most everyone else except the blessed people filing in Vermont. Anyway nice to meet everyone.

Silly question... I filed in Jan but got my NOA1 on Feb 1st. Am I Jan or Feb??? I'm a janbruary!!! hehe

I would say you are a February filer,...technically...

Okay January filers I am looking for some NOA2's to start very soon from all the service centers. I wish all of us a speedy process.

Do you think we really will see some NOA2's already? (except those who filed at Vermont)!
