From what I have been reading, Uscis did say that most files will be sent to service centres and some will be adjusticated at NBC.

However by looking at the March 13 filer threat it seems they are now starting to transfer end of Mar filers. Maybe you will be getting your transfer notice this week.

Check out the thread for more info.

USCIS is not senting files to local offices but to 3 service centers CSC, TCS and VCS. There have been some approvals coming in due to the transfers, most from VSC so your chances of a faster approval if you get transfer will increase abit. Though you never know cuz this is USCIS we are talking about.

Your file would be transferred to a service center, not a local office.

Quite a few of VJers got approved after circa 2 weeks from the transfer. Hard to say if it will be a trend.

Hopefully, though!
