Question on I-129F transferred to local

[TongandWei 0]

Will a new I797 be issued after the local (VSC in my case) receives the transfer?

What will be the NOA1's date? The date on I797 issued by Chicago or the new received date by VSC?

Many thanks!

Hello, It seems I have the same situation as you have. I filed my I-130 to VT center, then I-129F to Chicago and i recived the NOA1.

Then over this weekend, I got email that they have transfered it to VT center. Don’t they process the I-129F (Spouse) in Chicago? If so, why did they transfer it VT center? Is that a good sign or not? I will appreciate your answer.

Howeve, I am caling the custmer center to see why is that and keep you posted.

ghshahrokh,

I-129f for spouse is processed at the National Benefits Center in Missouri. Chicago is their receiving station.

Recent anecdotal evidence indicates that the NBC has been forwarding at least some cases to the VSC for processing.
