I am in the K-1 VISA process. Texas sent me a NOA1 in the beginning of June saying that my case was received and is being sent to the Vermont Service Center. However, on August 12, I received a NOA with the classification of "transfer". They said my case was reviewed and determined that they need to send it to Texas to be processed. Based on this, what time frame should I use? Starting from June, or starting from August 12? Also, has anyone ever gotten a notice of transfer, and if so, what does it mean and why do they transfer cases to other service centers?

I am in the same positive as you and many others.I am a June filer and was transfer August 9 to Texas Service Center.My fiance never receive a text message nor an email of transfer but it is stated so on the uscis website when we check our status update.I am not aware of what time frame to follow besides at vermont center process I-129F within 5 months,so it's that rhythm am following despite being transfer. due to the fact TSC doesn't have a time frame because they just recently began working on I-129F.I would assume it's the same time frame (continuous) from VSC with maybe an extra 30 days or something like that.The I129F are being transfer to balance workload being that VSC has a backlog and they are trying to complete the cases within the stated processing time.
