We were transferred as well (PD May 13th). It will take a couple of weeks for the notice to get to Finland, if it ever does get here, so will maybe know more then.

Ellinora, you can try calling Customer Service/Tier2 to find out where your file was transferred.

When two people are meant for each other, no time is too long, no distance is too far, no one can ever tear them apart.

Yes, this seems like the smart thing to do. I emailed AILA about a month and a half ago when many of us were growing wise about NBC-Overland Park. I thought what I wrote explained the evidentiary ba

The purpose of a real timeline is to build up statistics data for more accurate approval estimates. So it would really help other members if more people filled theirs in.

hmm...so something odd. I have been going through some MSC numbers + or minus mine by a few digits just to see where I am in line.

Just today, MSC numbers behind me by 3 or 4 were transferred. Also, MSC numbers ahead of me by 1 or 2 were also transferred today. So I wonder why mine was skipped. These were all May 14th filers for fiancé/spouse, and I'm sure they weren't expedited because if they were, they would have been transferred a while back.

Not to add to the conspiracy theory, but what are the chances of this happening be because of 'living abroad?"

You think this is something to be concerned about?

I wouldn't overthink it yet and give it few more days to a week. We were transferred this week, but I also was checking and saw that MSC numbers a bit before and a bit after me were transferred earlier than our file. Again nobody knows why is it this way, maybe just depends on what box your file is sitting in.

Your file is NOT going to a local office. Wait for your hard copy to find out which service center your were transferred to.

TSC, NSC or CSC. Everyone gets the 3 or 4 emails stating their file is being transferred.

My senator's office actually inquired for me and sent me the information while I was in Costa Rica. The hard copy was at my house when I got home. It only took a few days. I was transferred on Nov. 27th

Nothing here either sad.png but I guess they can't transfer us to a local office since we are abroad.

Hi Ellinora,

we also filed from abroad (Netherlands) and yesterday we received a notice that our case was transfered to a local office.

I don't know which one, but I guess they do transfer abroad cases also.

We didn't expedite or DCF.

Good luck to you!

Thank you! We were also transferred today to "your local office." Now we'll just have to wait and see which service center is our "local" office :)
