We filed on 30th Sept and on Feb 22nd they transfered our case to Texas from Nebraska to speed up the process. Anyone has similar situation? 

 

They're going through September cases now so you should hopefully get notifications soon.  I had pd 9/26 (Nebraska), transferred on 2/15, and just got an approval last week. I see some people with PD in mid September are also still waiting for an approval so don't lose hope!

We're one day ahead of you (PD 9/29, xfer to Texas 2/22), and we're still waiting, too... seemingly electronic notifications aren't working for transferred cases, so just keep an eye on your mailbox for NOA2... best of luck!

So my case tracking app finally got updated today stating that my case got sent to Department of State on 31st of March. I'm trying to go on USCIS web site's case tracking part but it's not working. I wonder how long should I wait for my case number to be assigned to me..?

You need to call NVC to inquire about that. Ask them if they already received your case or not.

Shouldnt they first update on the app that the case was sent to department of state?

We are also right behind you. Our case was received by Nebraska on 9/30/16. NOA1 10/04/16 and our case was transferred to Texas Service Center on 2/22/16. Checking my mail box everyday. Hope we all get approved soon!

Question - Do you guys know if I can start filling out the affidavit of support forms already just to have them ready or should I wait till the case number is assigned and I pay the fees?

Thanks.

Takes about 1-2 weeks for NVC to receive your docs and another week or two for case # to be assigned.

I haven't gotten my Case # yet but I've prepped everything for the I-864ez, all the DS260 questions and have started my Supporting documentation packet for send off.  Never too early!

You mean, you filled the forms out already? Sorry if I'm being slow haha, I'm trying to figure out if I can fill the affidavit forms out already and save them on my pc or should I do that online and print them out with the bar codes and all that?

 Can't wait to start calling NVC

I downloaded/filled out/saved the forms on my computer, have pdf versions of my taxes, have a cover letter typed up.  I didn't have barcodes on the I-864Ez.  The welcome letter will have a page with a barcode though which you will need to include.

Once i get my case #, I'll be updating it on the files where I can and printing out Avery labels for the pages with my husband's name and case #.

Wow, now I really think I should go ahead and do the same! Any idea if I should include copy of my local police certificate to the package? And do you know where can I get some sort of template for a cover letter?

are you a beneficiary and live in Taxes? my husband called on WEDNESDY, ask why our case being trasferred to new york local office, and the tier 2 office said because the beneficiary (which is me ) who live in new york city

I don't know if where you live has much to do with where you get transferred. I initially filed from abroad, got sent to Nebraska but changed our address back to my US address in California back in December. So, I, the petitioner lives in California and our case got transferred from Nebraska to Texas...I think they are just shifting the work load.
