So my original creation date was April 23, 2013 and my last status update was July 29, 2013. I just checked the CEAC website and both my case creation date and status update date both changed to today's date. I don't know if I should be happy or sad. I must admit that in a little excited :). My question is for those who have been in Administrative Processing, is the status and case update date being changed to today's date a good thing? And should I look forward to my case moving forward sooner than later or should I prepare for a long wait? I am interested to know what to somewhat expect... I sent the embassy two emails yesterday and then I find the changes today although they did not respond to any of my emails. Any help/ advice will be appreciated. Please and Thank You!

your case was updated because you emailed the embassy, it gets updated every time someone looks at your case, which they apparently did when you contacted them

My status update changed Tuesday when i called DOS, It has not changed since then even tho i have emailed the embassy August 13 and 20 and my husband emailed them August 18, we have not even received a response other than their auto response message. so I dont really know what if they looked at your case or because you have emailed them.

I called DOS this morning and they said to give them a call back in a few days because it looks like my case is in the final stages which is the first they have said anything of that nature. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for every case in AP
