Nashville Field Office
Anyone with their I485 case moved to Nashville Field Office? Non Local FO for me. Case was transferred after 9 months at National Benefits Center. Wondering what the experiences have been like.

Hello. I hope so as well. I am not sure if it is good for a case to move to a field office or not. All the best to you as well.

@Dharmesh Jha It's good as cases moved to Non-local don't get an interview. However, approval time varies from 2 weeks to 2 months.

@Dharmesh Jha most likely your case approve soon. In rare case, if officer feels interview to be carried out then again move to local field office. Hope your case approve soon w/o RFE by non local officer. Good luck

@Charlie SC I hope that’s the case. After multiple rounds of chats with Emma, I was able to get them to say that my case moved to a field office. The downside is that the processing time of Nashville FO is almost 30 months😒

@M K I hope so. can’t wait to get over the line. Feels its taking an eternity. good luck to you as well.

@Dharmesh Jha - My case moved to a non local FO which had a processing time of 46 months - Oakland Parks and then it got transferred to my local FO for interview. I feel they transfer it to such busy offices only for interview review and then move them.

@P V Has your case been approved yet?
P VNov 5, 2024
@Dharmesh Jha - It got transferred to local FO - Newark last week and I am waiting for interview to be scheduled
Dharmesh JhaNov 5, 2024
Ah ok. I assume you are EB-2 ROW as well? what’s your receipt date?

My case moved to Cincinneti FO (non local) on 09/06/24 from NBC, and my case approved today. So, I think it is good news to be transferred to the other FO. Good luck with your case.

@So P Congratulations on the approval. what’s your PD and RD? Cincinnati has one of the lowest processing times, 10.5 months.
So PNov 6, 2024
Thank you! PD: 01/23/23& RD: 07/02/24 Since you transferred to a nonlocal FO, you will be the next.

Did you hear back anything from your case? Mine was transferred to Nashville FO in early July 2024, but still haven't heard anything since then
