I-140

Case Was Transferred And A New Office Has Jurisdiction

Employment-based green card petition

What this means

USCIS moved your file to a different office. This is common for workload balancing. Your receipt number stays the same; processing continues at the new office.

What to do next

No action needed unless a notice asks you to appear somewhere new. Continue monitoring this receipt number — do not refile just because of a transfer.
