joe30 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Hi all, I have a H1B renewal/extension of stay petition with California center. I got a case update telling me that, my case was transferred to a new service center and they have the jurisdiction. How this effects the processing times? Does any of you got this kind of messages? Did they process your case in a timely manner? What are the final decisions in such situations? Just wanted to get some statistical data to understand whether any change in my situation. TIA, Joe Link to comment

pontevecchio Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 It is for load balancing and they have sent it to a less busy Office and hence you should be able to get the result sooner than if the California centre was still dealing with it. Link to comment

TIA, Joe Here is the Processing timelines for each service center. Certainly, CSC timelines are brutal for H1B extensions(I129) https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ When was your Extension petition filed in California service center ? what was your receipt date/ notice date ? Who did you receive the message that your case is transferred to a different service center. Link to comment
JaiTrump Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Will probably take another 6 months with current processing times.. i dont mean to scare you.. but, check processing times online Link to comment

Who did you receive the message that your case is transferred to a different service center. The case was received at CSC on May 2nd 2018. Would the new service center process it based on the original receipt date or the new receipt date which is Oct 30 at the new service center. I received a text message on my phone and same was updated on the website as well. Link to comment

I'm on the same boat, not sure which location the case transferred to, please update once you got any new status on your case. Both Vermont and Nebraska center now processing cases filed beyond June so our case is already current, lets wait and see Link to comment

H1B & H4 are still under review. Yesterday(Nov 26th), I got on update on USCIS website, that H4-EAD card has been ordered for production, while H1B, H4 are still pending. What can make of it? Is my H1B also approved or has higher chances of approval? Thanks, Joe Link to comment

Still waiting to hear from my employer, as the website is not updated. Thanks, Joe Link to comment
joe30 Posted December 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Got the H1B approval as well at the same time. But the online portal is updated for H4-EAD only. Good luck for everyone. Link to comment
