I'm also on the same boat.

Will the interview now be held only after Oct 1, 2018, since EB1 cases are in retrogression from Apr 2018? [The passport of my wife & son expires by end of Sept, 2018 to complicate matters!]

In my opinion is a good sign showing that your case is moving forword.

Hi My EB2 received in September 17.
Biometrics 11/14
Case was transferred once from Nebraska to NBC (02/26) and 2 days after again back to Nebraska at 02.28. It was stated at the first transfer: to speed up the process. So I'm wondering what was the reason for return it back to NSC just 2 days after? No EAD. I guess our employment based interviews (filling periods Sep-Dec 17) will be in 6-8 month. Hope that we can get our EAD at least soon

They do that in order to balance caseloads among service centers. From the looks of it, it's likely a centralized queue and the system does that in an attempt to keep up with expected adjudication times. I'm speculating, of course, but I can't imagine someone manually doing it.
