Case transfer back from NBC to Nebraska
My follow to join case (I-824) got transferred from Nebraska to NBC. One week later, it got transferred back to Nebraska. This is confirmed as I received two physical notices, both with the same reason - to speed up process.
I tried contact the agent and they said it is common as Nebraska could offload some work to other service center. However, more than a month has passed and nothing happens.
Does anyone experience the same or have any insight?

The process….
It’s extremely hard to understand how the USCIS system works. Like someone submits their paper work and gets approved in 2 months or less but then another person with similar case submits theirs and it takes like 2yrs. I can understand all cases are not the same but Marriage/Fiancé applications for two seperate families shouldnt have that much length in determining the outcome especially when both parties have all paper works submitted and responded to RFE. Something needs to be done to help speed things up. there’s no way you expect people to live in this country for almost 2yrs without being able to work etc especially when you have dependents etc.
I have been waiting for the USCIS decision on my file for several months, I am very worried because I am in great difficulty in Haiti
