Hi all,

Today i got an email from USCIS stating my AOS case has been transferred to the California Service Center...is this a good thing?

Im pretty sure I'm not the only one to whom this has happened...can anybody going through or have gone through the same thing please share their experiences?

How does this affect processing time and does anyone know why cases get transferred?

Thanks so much as always!

Being transferred to CSC is usually a good thing. Most CSC transferrees are approved without an interview. My husband's AOS case was transferred to CSC, and we were approved in a little over two weeks after the transfer. So things can move very quickly once your application gets to CSC. (But not always...there are some CSC transferrees who have been waiting quite a while for their AOS approvals.)

Reportedly AOS cases are transferred to CSC in order to relieve the load at backlogged local district offices. The cases transferred are supposed to be straightforward and uncomplicated so they can be approved without an interview. Beyond that, nobody has a clue what the selection process is for CSC transfers.

From what I've heard, only "Conditional" 2 year Green Cards are eligible to be transferred to CSC for processing without interview.

Hi jeeleebee,

We have almost the same date. I read my email today saying my case was also transfered to CSC on August 28 and biometrics was scheduled on Sept. 1. I was happy to know that we don't have an interview anymore and I can get my greencard soon! God has been so good really.

I just want to wish you goodluck too!
