April 9, 2013 Received a Text and Email Message that Petition is being sent to Vermont for Processing and will get hard copy within 7 to 10 days.

July 10, 2013 - Received 2 emails that our file was transferred. On July 10, 2013, we transferred this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E) to another office for processing because they now have jurisdiction over the case. We sent you a notice of this transfer. ***Waiting to hear more!**** Then a few days later I received another email and a text and a few days after that I got a hard copy. I will edit the dates tomorrow.

Edit: I have to update the timeline when I get a chance.
