California Service Center I140 Transfer from CSC to TSC

I140 Transfer from CSC to TSC

I recently learned that my I140 case was transferred from California Cervice Center to Texas Service Center about 5 months after applying, and was wondering whether there are any other people in the same situation? Is that a common practice? Does the case take more/less time to be reviewed?

I also got email notification that my I140 petition has been moved from California to Texas service center.
On March 21, 2006, we transferred your I140 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER to an office in TEXAS SERVICE CENTER for processing. That office has jurisdiction over the case. They will send you a written decision as soon as processing is complete. You should receive a notice informing you that your case has been transferred to a local office. Please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283 to receive information about local office processing times.

My apprehension is that it is some sort of security check.Please see link which I found on web

-140 Petitions Subject to Security Checks
Even though the I-140 immigrant petitions for foreign workers do not confer legal immigration status, the TSC confirmed that these applicants are also subject to certain security checks. Therefore, it is possible that the processing of an I-140 petition will be delayed beyond normal processing times due to security checks.

Is that a common practice? Does the case take more/less time to be reviewed? In which state you are working presently ?. Is that state come under TSC jurisdiction ?.

I got the same message today. My company is in CA, and my RD is Nov 22nd 2005.
