What does it *mean* if you have been transferred to the California Service Center?

I see a huge thread listing people who have been transferred to CSC (I am guessing California Service Center?) but I am having trouble tracking down what the implications are.

Our case has been transferred from Texas to CA, and it appears that Texas has faster processing times; transferring to CSC for supposedly 'faster' processing time must be malarky, so I am wondering what the heck is up? Does this mean something has gone wrong? We really need that EAD.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can clear this up.

Normally it means that you won't need an interview for AOS...we're all feeling your pain Galateia (the EAD!)...Good luck!

For K-Visa holders this typically means that NBC considered the case to be simple, and decided that an interview may net be needed so sent it to CSC for adjudication.

CSC may approve without interview, or they may decide an interview is needed and send it to your field office for interview.

Ours was transferred to CSC last year, no interview was needed.

You may want to update profile to show AOS pending, you are not K-1 anymore. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...rCP&CODE=01

Thanks for the fast replies. So while we may or may not have bypassed the need for an interview, we've gotten yet another delay for EAD?

I'm also trying to hunt down the field offices info, our Biometrics was in our town (Lubbock) but the field office would still be Dallas, right? According to the USCIS website, our field office is Dallas but our Biometrics was in town. My husband seems to think that makes our field office Lubbock, but it looks to me like it's still Dallas. That puts us no farther ahead if it does result in an interview, because Dallas is where we would have gone if it had stayed in Texas.

Argh, I am so tired of being in the dark all the time!

Correct, a field office is different than an ASC, you may be fingerprinted at the nearby ASC, but interviews tend to be handled at the field office.
