But then again there is still no official announcement from their website. I will not assumed until they have official announcement about this transfers chaos!

 

Tier1 and Tier2 officer can also see what we can see online. So it useless to ask them, unless you want to make them a service request about your case. LOL!

Already been an approval and not just that card production. I am guessing it will be how quick is the field office that it has gone too is. My card coming from Vermont is not in production, but if it is they havent updated it, nor did they update it with my approval. So taking all that into consideration I would say firstly, they don't always update their page nor systems to let people know of the transfers and secondly there will be mass approvals in the next coming days/weeks.  Oh then tension of everyone checking each day as you are all so close to the finish post.  Next there will be mass hangovers after a celebratory drink!  LOL.

I like the hangovers part so I will forget I'm dealing with USCIS. LMAO!!!!

Hi Daneisy,

I was approved on Feb 5th and I only received the card in the mail last Friday (Feb 23rd), my status online only changed last night Feb 26th! I received text messages and an email from USCIS informing me they already mailed and delivered the card. I am sure your card is on its way, be patient! I was also very frustrated when it took so long but keep calm, it eventually will come! If you have informed delivery check the package section as it will not show as a regular letter. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing this info with me! My husband’s card should be on its way then LOL. He didn’t get the passport stamp before we got the approval letter, now his airport employee ID is days away from expiring. God willing we will get his card soon. 

 

I truly hope that all of us get our approvals and cards soon.

Has anybody else's case been transferred to the MSP field office? I just read something that said they are the slowest field office in the country!! I am a Feb 2017 filer and my case was transferred yesterday (26th). I haven't been able to get an INfoPass appt yet - near impossible - it also says when trying to make an appt that they are moving their office in April so will be closed from April 19-25... AAArrrgghhhh!!!

How do you know that your case has been transfered? I'm Feb 17 filer too and  it turned 1 year on last Feb 23rd. My case status is still the same. "On February 23, 2017, we received your Form CRI-89",  no any update

Thank you. I did it. Still "case was received"

Got I-551 stamp at USCIS Detroit office today. The officer told me another 5-6 months of wait on ROC (california center). He told me to apply N-400 while  waiting. 

So far I had an immigration attorney helping me since my H1B visa 7 years ago. How complicated is the N-400 application process. Do I still need attorney's help to file. Any input?

Thanks

Shouldnt say that with the other number you will either get an error message or your case has been transferred. Whatever number you are using, use the other one, its the one from your NOA1 letter and not the bio-metrics letter.

You don't need an attorney, unless you have a special case. It's especially easier now that you can file the N-400 online and pay with a credit card!

I think @corvusheart  is at MSP and has had their file transferred. I am guessing they wont take long with ROC though, else it kind of cancels out the backlogs.

Shell, I put the one from NOA 1 and it said "My Case Status does not recognize the receipt number entered". Then I used another one from bio letter and it said "Case was received"

I don't know what's wrong with my case

I'm at the MSP office and also had my case transferred, supposedly. The info about the office moving is from last year when they moved from Bloomington to downtown Minneapolis. The info pass slots open up after midnight and had tons available last week when I was looking every day.

Same for me. There has been no update to my case status. Just says that it was received.  Does this mean it wasn't transferred?

 

Also, congrats @shell20!!  You've given me hope that the approval is just around the corner....
