I wonder when sending your applications to different service centers will be base on the Petitioner's address? I know somebody that her files was from CSC and then transferred to VSC. Why is that, any ideas?

It is based on state and based on work load of the service center.

Most CR1/IR1 petitions generally get sent to CSC but the decision is made at the Chicago Lockbox facility based on the work load of each service center. I am from Texas but my petition was sent to CSC.

Navy has it right--where you live has nothing to do with it--it is completely based on current backlogs, although if you were to search through the various service centers, you would find that CSC handles far more spousal petitions than any other site, so the odds are very high that you will be sent to CSC in any event.

Also, as to processing times, sometimes CSC is better and sometimes VSC--again, it is based on backlogs.
