Does NBC Schedule Interview or Local Field Office?

Hi :)

 

We submitted our AOS from F1 in Feb, 2020 (crazy that it's been almost a year!). I had my biometrics taken in October and our I-485 updated to "ready to schedule interview" shortly thereafter. I called USCIS today requesting an expedite on the EAD/AP, and out of curiosity asked if our file has been transferred to our local field office (Pittsburgh). I was surprised to hear that our file is still with the NBC.

 

It was my understanding that the file should be transferred to the field office when it is ready to be scheduled for an interview, and the field office then schedules the interview. After the phone call with USCIS, I did some googling and have seen conflicting reports that NBC actually schedules the interview and then transfers the file to the field office after the interview is scheduled. 

 

Does anyone happen to know which is correct? Or most correct, given the chaos that is the USCIS?

 

Thanks :)
