How does change of address effect process?

[forgetmypen 2]

I am currently waiting on my NOA2 after receiving my NOA1 that the petition is being processed at the Texas Center. However, I am about to move to a new state and I wonder what effect that may have on the whole process. The address change will be from an East coast state to a West coast state.

Will this delay/speed things up? Does a change in address warrant a transfer in service center. I just want to try and get the facts straight before I change anything.

Thanks!

Sorry for the bump - anyone have any input on this?

It really doesn't delay anything in the process because most of what's going to happen is going to be on the beneficiary's end of things. Just inform them of the address change. If the information doesn't get updated by the time it gets to the beneficiary he/she will have many opportunities to change it during the process.

Thanks for your input! I wonder if it might not actually help things? Right now TSC is moving at a snails pace with I-129F but CSC is flying. The state I am moving to would be in (what is normally) CSC jurisdiction.

Does anyone know if a change of address on the petitioner's end would cause a case to be transferred to a different service center?

During the initial stages of our process my husband (then fiance) was transferred to another state, which changed the jurisdiction to another service center. The process did not go faster. The process did not go slower. It's just the petition.
