Would like to start a new thread just for Potomac Center. Quite a few April and May, 2018 CSC filers were transferred to Potomac a few weeks ago. It seems like CSC has skipped these filers that were transferred cause some late May filers were getting approved. So far, I have only seen an April filers who was transferred on Feb 19th, 2019 just got approved. If anyone else who was transferred to Potomac Center could share your timeline, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Filed in May 2018 and transferred to Potomac April 23rd 2019.

 

I can't say how fast this service center is. I did see potentially a Jan 2018 filer that was transferred there that seems to have had a two-month turnaround.

I remember from the days of our I-130 journeys that a number of cases got transferred to Potomac.  At least initially, it was quite a bit faster than staying put.  Hopefully, that's true for all of you.

Greetings, 

your case and my case seems to be on a similar time line. My case was transferred to Potomac on June 4th too. It was first filed on July 11/18 . Still waiting on updates since then.

Good to know! I only know of one other person with our timeline from the June 2018 Filer thread and they haven't had any updates since their transfer to PSC. It seems like the transfer to PSC slowed things down instead of speeding it up 😕

I filed Sept 02, 2018 in California and case transferred to Potomac on June 11, 2019

biometrics on July 9, 2019

 

since then nothing. 

 

Also, I checked the website https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ where you can choose Potomac. If your case is older than June 6th 2018, then you can do a processing time inquiry. It says that cases there take between 13.5-15 months
