It varies, depend on which office. I would say wait till 8-12 weeks and if no response ask your congressman or senator to contact the USCIS office. What I have heard they are doing very tight background checks on most of the EB cases, which is taking more than usual time. My case also moved to Brooklyn office and that office is very busy. I’ll wait three months before contacting to senator.

@kk m which field office was your case transferred to? I am in the same boat. my case was transferred to Non-local field office on 6/10 and I-485J case was generated and added to my portal on 7/10 (though I had submitted my i-485J form with original package). no updates since then.
