Hello VJ members, I just got this notification for our case (initially filed w/ CSC)

"On November 2, 2010, we transferred this case I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN to our TEXAS SERVICE CENTER location for processing and sent you a notice explaining this action. Please follow any instructions provided on the notice....".

Do anyone experience this before? I guess they just share the load among service centers.

Thanks

Peter

Was there an explanation in the notice? I am confused. I thought Texas was a lockbox facility and NOT a service center :unsure:

August 23, 2010 - I-129 F package sent via USPS priority mail with delivery confirmation.

August 30, 2010 - Per Department of Homeland Security (DHS) e-mail, petition received and routed to California Service Center for processing. Check cashed. I-797C Notice of Action by mail (NOA 1) - Received date 08/25/2010. Notice date 08/27/2010.

After 150 days of imposed anxious patience...

January 24, 2011 - Per USCIS website, petition approved and notice mailed.

January 31, 2011 - Approval receipt notice (NOA 2) received by mail. Called NVC, given Santo Domingo case number, and informed that petition was sent same day to consulate.

Called Visa Specialist at the Department of State every day for a case update. Informed of interview date on February, 16 2011. Informed that packet was mailed to fiance on February, 15 2011.

February 21, 2011 - Fiance has not yet received packet. Called 1-877-804-5402 (Visa Information Center of the United States Embassy) to request a duplicate packet in person pick-up at the US consulate in Santo Domingo. Packet can be picked-up by fiance on 02/28.

March 1, 2011 - Medical exam completed at Consultorios de Visa in Santo Domingo.

From time to time they shift the case load to other facilities to ease the load at a given facility... its likely just a load balance taking place... everything else should go as normal... just from texas rather than CSC

This seems a little curious because your timeline says you filed an I-129F. Is that true? Or did you file an I-130?

There is a lot of discussion about people who were transferred to the Texas Service Center here:

CSC to TSC

Good luck! Maybe it will mean quicker processing for you!

why post in the K-1 fiancee visa forum? an I-130 is a petition for an immediate family member

My timeline includes my old I-129F info & current I130 which I filed after my I129F was returned to USCIS.

I'm currenlty visiting my wife in Vietnam and got the notification on 11/02/2010 so I don't know if a hard copy of the notification has been sent to my house.
