I-485 - Case was transferred to a new jurisdiction

[L1A_asp]

If it moves to NBC, it's a good sign. Things will turnaround faster for you now.

Will we get notified which center it was transfered to? in how many days we will get to know?

I guess we'll see which Field Office they send it to...I'm equidistant from 3 of them...all with a processing time of less than I've currently been waiting!

You can look up the field office using your zip code in USCIS website. For ex. My field office is in a different state than the one I'm in while there is another field office at a shorter distance within my State. But like I said before, processing time doesn't matter as transferred cases are being processed very quickly

My status got updated-

On July 13, 2022, we transferred your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, Receipt Number to another office for processing and sent you a transfer notice.

In April our I-140 got approved. May end I tried interfiling of medical. Not sure if it’s attached. Level 1 officer was not able to confirm. Waiting for call from level 2. (I just spoke to level 1 yday). Today my case is transferred. No idea where.

Congrats! Can you share your timeline and your Service Center?

so...my case has been transferred to National Benefits Center, MO...."in order to speed up processing"...same reason they originally transferred from Phoenix to Nebraska!!

I tried to see what the current processing time is, but it isn't even listed on the USCIS website for me to check

You have to refer to the processing times of your field office instead when your application is with NBC. Also you shouldn't worry too much about processing times as they are adjudicating cases at lightning pace now.

Great news. Congratulations. Hopefully I'll get mine soon. I didn't expect I140 approval to take upward of 18 months. Still waiting.

there's a youtube video about how to get to an agent....hover, every time I've spoken with one, they haven't been any help at all. They just reel off the same pre-recorded answers that 'Emma' gives

[Vsamsr10]

I can't see that there's anything they can do. I have no basis on which to request to expedite. Just a waiting game. I did speak to an agent who reeled off a standard response.

USCIS has the sole discretion to determine which office will process your case. you can request your case to be transferred to another office. You must make a transfer request with the new office where you want the case moved. That office has the discretion to grant or deny your request. If the office grants your transfer request, you will be informed about what you need to do and what to expect, including how long the process may take. If the office does not grant your transfer request, you will need to follow any other instructions you receive from the office where the case is currently located.

I am trying to reach out to live agent. Unable to do so. Tried whole last week. Please let me know how you were able to reach an agent.

Don't worry, Shiva. I wish you get an update soon. I received an email notification this morning stating that an action was taken on my case, but there's no change in the application.

Today my case was updated...transferred to yet another office...don't know where yet though, or why

Good Luck!! i will have to see if i can see any update in coming days! Mine was transferred on August 2021.

Good Luck Shiva!!!
