I485 transferred
- Thread starter vk123
- Start date
Is your application NIW? This normally triggers transfer to the local office as USCIS wants to confirm the NIW case. Another reason might be a need for additional background checks.
Check on the USCIS website what is the current processing date for the local office where your file has been transfered. Most likely the date will be past you initial RD/ND date. Contact the local office to find out if your file will be processed according to its initial RD/ND date and when can you expect an interview.
Good luck!

Hi, vk123,
What's your on-line status say? It says transfer for interview, transfer for processing, or transfer for speedy processing? Have you received the tranfer notice in mail yet?
Are you the primary? If you have derivatives, what are their case status now?
Is You case transferred to your local office or district office?
Sometimes TSC transfers a case for some reason. I remember some summarized the reasons in a very good thread not too long ago. You can try to search for it. Sometimes they just transferred the case for no reason or by mistake that they didn't want to admit it. Just remember, everything is possible at TSC. Like my family member expericed case transfer back and forth once. We are experiencing it the second time again now.
When local office receives ur file, they will schedule ur interview. You best bet is to contact your local office for more information/schedule interview.
Good luck!

Hi TSC2003 and gingibi,
Below is the message:
I am the primary... even my spouse case status has changed to the same as mine. Not sure why they have transferred it.
On January 29, 2004, we transferred your I485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status to our office in LOUISVILLE, KY for them to schedule and conduct your interview. Scheduling can take several months. Our office in LOUISVILLE, KY will notify you when they schedule your interview or take other action on your case. If you need further information, please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283.

Not yet....
Jaysee,
No, not yet. I did contact my company lawyer and he said, "it happens all the time" and he will take the necessary steps when they receive the transfer notice. So, I am just waiting for notice before I call local office. Also, I heard that TSC may take upto 1 month to transfer the file to local SC.
It seems that TSC is just trying to get rid of cases ( by transferring them to locals) to demonstrate their 'efficiency'. I guess this is better than shredding the documents?!!!!
Good luck to you.

Louisville, KY is very bad in conducting interview
Earlier this happened to my I-131 case. Texas took almost 5 months to transfer the case. After that louisville didn't even called for the interview. I called them, I spoke to them they said they will let us know when the time comes. But nothing happened, one year was over then again I did apply for I-131 through TSC and got it approved. Now it is more than 2 1/2 years so far no interview. They are very bad. Go there in person and talk to them. Go early like 6'0 clock in the morning only then you will get a chance to see somebody. Wish you best of luck.

vk123,
I guess we will have to continue to wait. After contacting my company lawyer, I got to know that this is kind of normal these days. The company liason is looking into the matter.
Just hopw for the best and wait patiently as we have during the last "few" years.
Good luck to you too.

Today I have created a new thread with out checking this.
My case has been transferred on 02/03/04 from TSC to Louisville, same like vk123.
ND 09/01
FP 01/03
vk123 mentioned that the current processing date in Louisville is 12/2003. If so hopefully soon they will call vk123 and then me.
My labor and 140 filed & approved in NSC, 485 filed in TSC. I don't know is that triggered the transfer or something else.

NSC
Hi JvK,
My LC and I40 was approved by NSC but as I live in KY my stupid compnay lawyer filed with TSC even though I reqested them to file with NSC. Now, I am paying for it. ABout to file 4th EAD and was told that I should send to Louisville. I am not sure if I should go in person or send it by mail.

vk123,
If you can, go to local office in person before you mail you EAD application. This gives you a very good excuse to ask them to check if they have received your file. Anyway, a knowledgeable IIO wouldn't approve your EAD without having your 485 file. Catch the opportunity to beg them to schedule your 485 interview during the visit.
It usually takes 2 weeks to 1 month for the file to get to the local office.

My case is even worse. My lawyer filed my I-140 in VSC and filed my I-485 in TSC. Imagine I would have got my approval two years back if he would have filed it in vermont. Now the same stupid lawyer is saying your case will get transfered to local office. This is the main reason for the cases to get transfered.

The content shows, "Priliminary processing has been completed. The local office will notify the schedule for an interview".
Any one has an idea how long it will take to get the letter from Louisville INS for an interview?

Feel sad that ...
1. No idea when the local office would schedule an interview
