Did anyone else get an updated email that says:

The I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN was transferred and is now being processed at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

Hi all - Our case was transferred to Texas and of course we are anxious to receive our NOA2

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am an Accountant (by trade) and tend to look at things analytically. I did so with this TSC move and, it appears that it is good for everyone. No one looses. Following are my personal thoughts, observations and analysis. Please treat them as such.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. The Jun/Jul/Aug cases that remained at the CSC will complete the process "as usual". With all of cases sent to TX, these CSC could possibly complete these a little earlier than they otherwise would have.
   
2. On average, it appears that the CSC kept about 1 month's worth of Jun/Jul/Aug cases and sent about 1 month of Jul/Aug cases to TSC. The TSC cases will be processed quicker than they would have been at the CSC. They sort of "jumped the line" and cut a month off of processing time (from the date they otherwise would have been processed).
   
3. All cases filed in Aug/Sep/Oct... that stayed at CSC will also be completed more quickly than they otherwise would have been. The case load in front of these petitions at CSC was decreased by approx 1 month of cases. The CSC has that many less petitions to process so again, the time line moves up.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a different note, each case is different and takes a different amount of time to complete. There will ALWAYS be petitions filed after yours that get approved before yours and petitions filed before yours that get approved after yours.

My husband is from Egypt and (it appears to me that) in Egypt, government processing times depend on who you know and how much you are willing to pay to bribe them. I don't like our slow U.S. system any more than the rest of you but IT IS the system. It appears that the USCIS processes applications in the order they are received and, with the move to TSC, they are at least acknowledging there is a problem and are trying to improve it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I look forward to hearing about the rest of your journey's and wish you all well in the process. Peace to you all.

I agree

But just the time will show who is right or wrong!

There are no instructions except to wait until notified further.

I feel much better now. I was nervous thinking that had some instructions and we was wasting time.

Thanks and all the best luck.

Sorry Friends,

Im trying to find out where delete my own post and i cannot find.

I dont wanna mess the topic.

Same with our NOA1, priority date is August 1st, but on the transfer notice they say received August 11!

This happened with mine too, and I was really annoyed because my NOA1 took forever (received/priority date was August 5, notice date not until August 24). My most recent notice of action (about the transfer to TSC) ignores my original priority date and has August 24 at the receipt date. My guess is that they are buying time (although it might not make a difference, as it does seem in general that the NOA1 date is more important than the actual received date, which seems unfair to me). I know it's pointless to do anything but wait patiently and prepare for the next steps, but every little thing like this feels like a setback. Let's just hope to see some movement on these TSC cases soon.

CSC received my I-130 on August 22... and I also received notification that ours was sent to TSC on November 2. I hope this is good news for all of us.

make that 13August

[Nataliya-Ron 7]

I filed July 30th and was transfer to the TSC also

MY attorney said it's a good sign that I could be

approved sooner than longer than at CSC.

Only less than 60 days to approval he said

Good luck and at least the backlog in Ukraine is light

and not back logged like csc.
