Actually the entire answer below is wrong. An interstate transfer is the transfer of supervised probation from one state to another. Not the apprehension of a criminal wanted in another state.

Your probation officer initiates the transfer paperwork and sends it to the state you are requesting to move to. This should be done within 14 days of your request to move. In some states the judge who originally placed you on probation will have to sign off on the transfer request. Once the receiving state has the application it is up to them to approve or deny the request. The time frame really depends on the receiving state. Once the application has been approved or denied, your probation officer will be notified and will give you the proper information.

But be prepared, a lot of states require you to appear for your first appointment with your new officer no later than a week of the transfer going into effect. So be ready to move, quickly!

Previous Answer:

It's calledextradition or in some places a Governor's Warrant. Once the 'wanting' state has been notified of the apprehension the process is started but it is not swift. Much administrative and legal work has to be coordinated between the two states to lawfully remove the prisoner and transport him back, and there is no statutory time limit on the process. If the subject is still held awaiting transfer after 60 - 90 days they should file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to find out where the process stands.

Yes, felony probation can potentially be transferred to another state, but it typically requires the approval of both the sending and receiving states.
