Were you transferred to NSC?

If so, it's probably just a glitch.

When two people are meant for each other, no time is too long, no distance is too far, no one can ever tear them apart.

All cases starting with MSC prefix have been transferred to one of the service centers, Texas, Vermont, California or Nebraska.

I guess you haven't received a hard copy letter about your transferred yet and you haven't signed up for updates (https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/selectusertype.jsp) so you missed the transfer updates.

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOUR CASE IS: you have 2 options. The first is to wait for the letter from USCIS, the second is to call USCIS. If you want to call, here is my suggestion, and it has worked for a few of us on here smile.png

Call 1-800-375-5283. You must be the petitioner, USCIS will not speak with the beneficiary. Option 1 for English. Then option 2. Option 1 to enter your receipt number (enter your receipt number). Then press 3 to get connected to a customer service agent.

The first agent you speak with will not know any specifics about your case. What the agent will do is simply read what is on the screen (the same screen we're looking at when we check our case status online). When you get the agent on the phone, feign ignorance about your case. "I just got three e-mails about my case being transferred and I'm really confused". The agent will read the screen, at which point you can say "So where did my case go? Why is it going to the local office? I've never heard of I-130s going to the local office? Is there something wrong with my file?" The agent will likely re-read the screen. At this point, simply request to be transferred to a Tier 2 agent who can provide more specifics on your case.
If the agent you're speaking to is a jerk face and won't transfer you, hang up and try again smile.png
Once you're transferred, you'll get an obnoxious hold time, you can request a call back - there's a prompt that will walk you through that process. The Tier 2 agent will call you back. Start the same conversation again "I'm confused, where's my case going. I keep getting e-mails that my case is being transferred. Is there something wrong". The agent should let you know where it went.

The petitions are not being transferred to Lee's Summit. That's where they've been. Do not accept this as an answer from the customer service agent. If this is all too much for you, relax. You'll get a nice pretty letter from USCIS soon telling you where it went, but for impatient people like me, try the tactic listed above. Play dumb, but be firm in getting an answer. This is your petition, you have every right to know where it is.

We keep track of all the transfers here on VJ. Here are all the spreadsheets http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/470656-monthly-transfer-spreadsheets-in-order/

If I had to guess it would be that you were transferred to NSC ;) Let us know when you find out. ALSO please fill in your timeline!

I'm guessing you're a September filer? if so then join us here- http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/452116-september-2013-i-130-filers/page-191
