Come on final 4 transfer notices! Let's see some emails!

Now there are only 2 people waiting for transfer emails. They may have received transfer emails tonight.

It looks like USCIS has finished transferring almost all applications from NBC (National Benefits Center) to service centers such as CSC, TSC, VSC, and NSC. What is NBC going to do now? LOL Maybe NBC can transfer its employees to Nebraska! NSC can definitely use some help!

I'm excited to get the official letter! Sometimes mail comes to us very quickly from the US. Sometimes it takes FOREVER! I hope we get ours sooner than later. On the other hand, I wouldn't mind being one of the people whose approval notice beats the transfer hard copy!

Hopefully! I herd California is on top of the petitions coming in. On september's spread sheet it looks like they only have a few more to approve and then its our turn.

Ok so this question might be a little bit early, but maybe someone can answer it. I remember reading somewhere that the paperwork that the beneficiary sends to the petitioner who then sends it to NVC cannot be older than two months. Is this true?

I am asking, because if this isnt true I am going to ask my husband to send me all of the paperwork, but I dont want it to expire before its time to send it.

Thank you ahead of time!

California is at 40% or so for September. I think it will be at least a month. Don't get too excited yet.

I just expected it to be much longer. A month is nothing to what I thought we would be waiting.

I understand but I think we will see the bulk of the approvals from CA in 4 to 8 weeks. Don't set yourself up by setting your expectations too high. It looks like you have dealt with USCIS before.

It's always a good idea to gather your supporting documents in advance. However, I'm not sure if we're familiar with the NVC process yet. I mean only two Oct filers got NOA2 so far. You may want to post your question on "NVC Filers - March 2014". http://www.visajourn...ers-march-2014/ Good luck!

Thanks for the encouragement, but still no transfer for us!

That's too bad. I wonder why. Did you apply for I-129F? Did you request to get your case expedited? If not, you may receive the transfer email next week. Fingers crossed.
