Hi folks,

Yesterday I recieved this email update:

[snip]
Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS

Current Status: This case has been sent to another office for processing.

On August 30, 2007, we transferred this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS to our PHILADELPHIA, PA location for processing​
and sent you a notice explaining this action

Our applications were at the Texas center but both mine and my wife's moved to PA the day after our FP appointment in Alexandria. Could it be because Texas has a greater backlog? Does this happen regularly?

I find it odd how the application moved from one office to another, and also that it happened right after our FP appointment.
