idk if this is a stupid question but how long does a case take to be transferred from NBC to local FO? it’s almost a year and it’s still at NBC, idk why this even said they sent me an RFE when all I was the deficiency notice for medical right after my biometrics or was that considered to be the RFE?

in my knowledge, if your case is waived interview, it will not be transferred to local FO. in this situation, local FO is be used to check the processing time for your case.
