MGM,

What do you mean Transferred to local INS, has your case been approved and that you have to go to local INS for stamping or did I get this wrong.

My receipt date is 12/31/01 (I think), pretty much same as yours.

Thanks,
Raj

raj74,
No, my case has not been approved yet. Both my and my wife's cases have been transferred to the Philadelphia local office so that they can either schedule interviews, if needed, or approve our cases. Haven't heard from the local office yet but received a transfer notice from VSC.

Hi Philapa,
Did you get a notice from the local office saying that they received your file? I only got a case transfer notification from the VSC but the local office has not sent me anything. Let me know your situation since your case was transferred in January. Thanks.
 
Any luck?

I think a lot of the last few month's slow down had to do with the "extra-ordinary" situation (color alerts, special registration etc.). Now things are getting back to normalcy, and special registartion is over by April 25th 2003, I expect to see the trasferred cases (including the ones transferred to Philadelphia BCIS) being adjuciated as well as non-transferred cases. In fact, in very many cases transferred cases might have priority since their RD dates might be earlier. Only reason we are not seeing many of them on the board I guess is that compared to non-transferred cases, statistically speaking, transferred cases are much fewer.
 
Update from National Customer Center ....

Hi Friends,

Today spoke to an officer at the National Center (the number is available on the BCIS website ) to find out the case status at Philly after the transfer.

The lady was rude.She told me that the processing that was done at the Vermont Center may not be relevant to the Local center and that they can take their own time to judge the case.And also that they will have their own dates of processing .When i asked her that the case has taken more than 540 days she said that the time of 540 days is for the Vermont Center and does not have any sort of bearing on the Local center and added that it can take 1 year or even 2 years or more and cited the case of Arlington center which is taking close to 2 years now for scheduling interviews!!!

I guess we will have to pay them a visit at Philly to find out what is really happening and if they are having any estimates for calling interviews.

Cheers

Philly processing time

According to the Philadephia District Office processing time as of October 2002, the I-485 may take about 10 months.

Let us cut the melon this way and see...

I propose let us cut the melon this way and see if there is anything that can help us make sense of this transfer issue:

Everyone can write their native country and see if there is a pattern, a commonality:

Mine is Turkey. How about you?
 
I am from india and EB3..

Looks like the Philadelphia center is one of the slowest in processing cases for interviews..

Anyone knows how they go by RD /ND /TD?

Have a new problem in my case..my current employer is laying off people..so i started applying for positions around..Got 1 contract position in CA and they have said that this is a long term project (confirmed) and the rate is also excellent ..i can work through a cousin's company on his payroll...

Problem is i have been working on EAD for the last 1 1/2 yr and also switched employer thru which the gc was applied..originally..

All guru's here can u advise me on this issue..
