Wow I got to check mine to see if it has been touched has well. Do u see touched? How do u know It was touched?

Touches don't really mean anything but it just feels good to see someone realizes your file is there :lol:

You need to have an account on uscis.gov, then you add your case number to your portfolio. After that, you'll seen, next to your case number, a Last Updated field. If it's touched the date will change. That's what I gather from reading other threads!

Congrats Kelad! The e-mail also made my week! The show has begun! Hoping for no RFEs for everyone of us too (F)

It probably means nothing and it's just coincidental, but after all the reading I did here about the different types of visas and the different forms, it just made me think of K1 fiance visa!

Hoping we'll all have good news soon.

I filed on November 2 and my case status was on the USCIS website by the 6th. My case also starts with a 129.

Thank you! We also received an approval for expedite on the 17th. According to the notice, we will have our case adjudicated within 10 days. 8 more days of waiting for the NAO2, hopefully :whistle:

I am trying to see how long our case should take with the expedite process. However, I can't find anything. Hopefully, it will be finished soon and I can have my husband here for the New year.

Best of luck to all of you!

I don't know, is the expedite only for the uscis part, or does it also affect the next steps?

I am also looking for the answer to this question. I did see that USCIS said once approved, our case will be over-nighted to NVC. I would like to assume it is for the entire process since it doesn't make sense to expedite at one step and not the others....
