Flagstaff, AZ asked in Immigration Law for Arizona

Q: Got approved in the interview 4 months ago, but did not reiceve the card. Is it normal?

I went to my interview in September and the officer told me that my green card was approved and that I would receive my card within a month. However, after a couple of weeks I received a notice stating that my case was transfered to another office (in Texas). It has been 4 months since the interview now. When I called USCIS, they told me that the case was being processed. Is this transfer to another office after the interview common? Does my case have a problem?

A: That is unusual and I have not heard of a case being transferred to another office after the interview unless you moved prior to the case being approved. Try placing a service request with USCIS or making an InfoPass appointment to see if you can get more information.
