I 130 maybe sent to wrong USCIS
I am an F-1 student. My mother is a permanent resident in Oklahoma. Last July, she filed a I130 petition on my behalf. We thought it would be sent to the USCIS Texas Center, it was sent to the California center instead. I would like to know if it is possible to transfer my case to the Texas Center.
Thank you,
There is no set rule as to where a case is going to be sent for review. Petitions from Texas residents dont automatically go to TSC.
Thank you VisaNutz. I called USCIS customer service and they told me maybe TSC was not accepting petitions at that time. They told me that I could make a Transfer Request. Any idea how to do that?
Thank you,
Leave it where it is. They have their own criteria for transferring cases; theyll either ignore you or delay your case if you try to get it moved elsewhere.
Are you still under 21? Or some months past 21 and protected by the CSPA? If yes, what you need to worry about right now is filing the I-485, rather than where your case has been transferred to.
