Migrating NEST account to google Home

[Psonparote]

I am unable to migrate NEST account to Google Home. It says I have already connected my NESt account to Google Home. If so, how do I see NESt account linked to Google Home?

Thanks

@Psonparote

What exact message are you getting?

If you have already migrated your Nest Account to a Google Account, then you do NOT even get the "Migrate to a Google Account" in Settings in the Google Nest app, and you can only sign into the Google Nest app with that Google Acccount.

If you are getting a message saying that the Google Account to which you are trying to migrate is already linked to a Nest Account, then you should be able to see the devices on that previous Nest account; select "Sign in with Google" and sign in with that Google Account.

Thanks for your reply. I am getting the following message. In my Nest app, I do see option to Migrate.
I do not have any Nest devices in my Google Home.

Account error

This Google Account is already linked with another Nest Account. Please select another Google Account.

The only way this SHOULD happen is if you migrated another Nest Account to that Google Account in the past. The only way you SHOULD see no Google Nest devices for that Google Account in the Google Home app is if you removed them at some point in the past. If you log into the Google Nest app with that same Google Account (using Sign in with Google) do you also see no devices?

Unfortunately, Google Nest says: "It is not possible to unlink a Google Account and Nest Account that have already been linked to each other." They list 2 alternatives:
