bdrew612 unfortnately no, I have not been transffered yet. My PD is 09/20 and my case number is MSC13919051**. I have been playing around with the case numbers around me and found at least 50....09/20 PD's with no information online other than the initial recipet of I-130. I think there are still huge number of Sep-2013 filers who are still waiting to be transferred.

Thanks

I also have not been transferred. I have a PD of 9/30. I'm thinking Monday, because nothing really happens towards the end of the week.

Three October applicants (PD of 10/11, 10/11, and 10/15) got transferred last night! However, October applicants from 10/1 to 10/10 are still waiting to be transferred (myself included). I'm not sure if Thursdays and Fridays are big transfer days. I have a feeling that we'll see more transfer emails next Monday and Tuesday.

It looks like USCIS is transferring M-W. But, considering they're nearly done transferring, they could wrap up this week.

Then again, they're not known for being efficient.

I don't think there are anywhere close to transfering all of September, at least Sep 20th and beyond. I have been looking at the case status numbers around mine and there are a lot which show just the NOA1. Ughhh USCIS...

Cheers

I am currently calling USCIS to find out where my application was transferred to. For future references, you don't even need to go through the whole process of "playing dumb" in order to speak to a Tier 2 representative. I simply asked the first person I spoke with to be transferred to a Tier 2 rep and they said no problem, I'll transfer you right away. ;) Current wait time, 49 minutes...
