They sent us back to the mail room because of our I-129F date. Idiots

I'm not letting my hopes go up for these next days. I've done enouth counting on USCIS not f*king up, They always do.

Hi Elbereth,

we're kind of in the same situation. Only my husband did not call RFE but customer service. Instead he made a congressional inquiry. The answer from USCIS was that they received our i130 on Oct. 1. So he made another one with proof (copy of NOA1) that they received August 24. We got a touch yesterday too. Hopefully we'll both have good news these days!!! 63.gif

can you tell me please how you guys know that your cases were touched, i only check the website but it s has the same information that our case is recieved and pending, how can i know if they touch it or not? thanks

:star: Hi Sama27!

You have to create your own account at USCIS website and then add your cases to the portfolio. There you can see a column called Last updated date for each case. When this date changes people here refer as a "touch".

Good Luck to you...! :thumbs:

Alright then! Is anyone prepared to have a guess at when they think we may receive NOA-2????????

It would be interesting to see what some of you think. The VJ website gives a much better idea as to what is really going on than those USCIS processing dates. So I would really appreciate your input.

Vermont Service Center

I-130 - filed Sept 10th 2007

I-130 NOA-1 - Dec 27th 2007

I-129f NOA-1 - Jan 18th 2008

From what I can see from other approvals on this site we should be hearing something anytime now. But I am trying not to get my hopes up. I am thinking they will both get approved together, both got touched on 9th April.

Maybe we should start a sweepstake on approvals, then other forms of gambling, then drinking, more drinking! Anything to numb the pain of this load of old bollocks we are all going through right now! Trying to stay positive but hard when nothing continues to happen. Oh well - soon hopefully. It is good to hear from others in the same situation so we can all help each other a little bit.

Cheers

Dave
