May 2013 I-130 Filers

[Ellinora 72]

Our case has not been transferred either, still at OP I assume.

Just checked case status and it is still in initial review with the following info:

"On December 4, 2013, your address was changed relating to the I130, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN that you filed. Please check our website at www.uscis.gov for further updates on your case. Please wait until the end of normal processing time before calling customer service at 1-800-375-5283 for live assistance.

During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators."

Overland Park is probably one of the worst offices when it comes to a pending case. You are lucky they transferred your case. My case's PD is May 14th and not even touched yet.

Yours probably will get transferred any day very soon.. Mine was on May 8th, i barely got a transfer notice yesterday...

Hello everyone, I am a long time lurker here but havent posted until today. Just wanted to say that I finally saw an update for my case:

On December 5, 2013, we transferred this case I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN to another office for processing and sent you a notice explaining this action.

I dont know which office it was moved to, I assume my "local office" and I live near Boston but who knows. I will update as soon as I get the actual notice and figure out where it went. I am just glad to get some sort of an update. I filed on May 8th and my PD is May 29th.

Hi VJ's!

Just a quick post to let you guys know we got transferred today Dec. 5, 2013. Our priority date is May 8, 2013. I think someone was keeping track of May filers being transferred so just wanted to add us to the mix. We are unsure if this is good or bad news yet :-)
