If you live in Texas, then your attorney correctly sent it to the Phoenix lockbox.

I-130 is sent to what’s called a Lockbox facility. It’s a document clearing house really. The Lockbox will make sure the form is filled out correctly, the fee is right, no glaring error, ... then forward it to a service center.

So which service centre is this???

Texas service centre or Phoenix???

On USCIS website you can check the waiting times for Texas service centre but not the Phoenix. I think

You are not understanding how this works.

 

There is a difference between lockboxes and service centers.  They are not the same thing.  

 

All I-130s are mailed to lockboxes.  Your lawyer sent it to the right one if you live in Texas.

 

From the lockbox, USCIS decides which service center your I-130 goes to.

The Service Center will send the NOA1. When you receive the NOA1, it will say where it comes from and where the petition is being processed at.

 

There is no way to know at this point in time where your petition will be sent.
