I have priority date 25 June... transfered to TSC on 1st Nov, got USCIS notification email, text and touch on 2nd Nov, after that nothing, I am really getting frustrated with USCIS, They transfered I-130s after 4 months of waiting, I don't know how long I have to wait now

Hey Loto a quick question...

as u have read that couple of people have gotten approved and they have not received email/Txt from USCIS...but their case was forwarded to NVC... and when they called NVC they found out their case was approved...

so what i want to know if i call NVC how/what do i ask them if they have received an approved file from USCIS..

Thanks

Created a spreadsheet for you guys: https://spreadsheets...9UTnY4dWc&hl=en

Included the person's name, type of visa, country of beneficiary, NOA1 date, and date of transfer.

Taken from people who posted in this thread. I'm sure there's others out there that got transferred, but I don't feel like hunting them down on other threads. *lazy*

I'll continue to add names and edit the spreadsheet as more people post.

Analyze away!

Great job Saylin!!!Thanks a lot!

May I suggest something though... to maybe consider adding up an aditional column for the ever wanted & much desired NOA2?? kind'a keeps the motor running seeing some of us checking that out

JP, you can start dialing NVC Tel#. There is an option to enter either NVC Case# or CIS Receipt#. Enter CIS# and see if NVC has received it or not. Just another mechanism!

Loto CIS Receipt# is same as our NOA1 receipt# and in my Case would be WAC**********....

RIGHT?

thanks

That's correct, JP. NOA1 Receipt# is transferred to NOA2 #.

totally agree with you, but I do feel strongly that we will get our approval within the next two weeks....would that happen if we were still at CSC? I guess we will never know. It doesnt make any sense to me either when we are so close to the 5 month period...

I'll add the NOA2 column once someone actually gets approved. Just don't want a completely blank column

Our case was also transferred from CSC to TSC. When it first happened a few days ago before I started reading this thread, I sent an email to a friend of mine that specialized in immigration law. Here was her response:

"This is a good thing that your case got transferred to the Texas Service Center. In our practice, we see cases being transferred to another Service Center because the Center that has the case has too many cases, and they need to transfer cases out to another Center for faster processing. "

Additionally, I spoke with a USCIS agent at the local (Minnesota) USCIS office about a month ago and he explained that I-130's go through several departments for approval. I understood him to say that one agent doesn't work on an individual petition start to finish but that different departements review and approve different aspects of the petition/I-130 (i.e. one for citizenship of petitioner, one for fraud, one for legitmacy of relationship, etc.) The USCIS had received our I-130 about 2 months prior to this conversation and, at the time, the only posting on the USCIS website for our I-130 was the receipt date. There were no other indications on the USCIS website as to where our case was in the process or that it had even been looked at. The agent assured me that our case had already been reveiewed and sent on by 5+ departments and that these internal USCIS movements are not posted on the status screen that we (the public) can see.

The USCIS officer also told me the service centers are being pushed very hard to deliver within the 5 months window. As a result, they are pretty consistant about processing them in the order they were received so there is a better chance of achieving the 5 month goal for all. If you look at the stats onine, the CSC was waaaaaaaay behind and TX doesn't appear to be receiving or processing any I-130's.

Between the info from my friend (the immigration lawyer) and my conversation with the USCIS agent, I believe that CSC was way behind and transferred A LOT (maybe thousands) of I-130's to the TSC to speed up the processing. I also believe that even though we don't see any actions taken on the USCIS website, all of our cases (Jun, Jul, Aug, etc) have been reviewed by many departments and just need to continue to the end of the line (like an assembly line). The movement to TX was done to speed up the I-130's in process and it is a benefit to all petitions that moved and all that stayed.
