  What is the URL of the domain?

  You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchased the upgrade(s) to access the blog’s dashboard as required.

  Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
  and if required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery. https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

  Thank you for your assistance. The domain is nylegalcenter.com . I have been using the user name which is the administrator and the purchaser of the domain. I have been moving wordpress domains off of wordpress.com all week with no issue. What I am trying to explain is that the entire method for moving domains has changed. The “what do you want to do” option list is now gone. The help file for transfer domain registration no longer describes a method that works at all. Thank you very much again for your assistance.

  Timethief, you are very kind to do this. I will be patient. WordPress is always the best. Again I am not moving away from WordPress, just to independent WordPress hosting to take my WordPress capabilities to the next level! It is a wonderful platform and people like you who are so helpful just make my day! :D

  @glencovewebsite-

  Hi there,

  I found that your domain: nylegalcenter.com is not registered with us. It is registered with GoDaddy therefore you cannot perform the transfer through us.

  Here’s more information on domains here:

  Let me know if you have any questions about this!
