    You need to use the AddToQueueRequest: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg327483.aspx

     

    // Move a record from a source queue to a destination queue
// by using the AddToQueue request message.
AddToQueueRequest routeRequest = new AddToQueueRequest
{
    SourceQueueId = _sourceQueueId,
    Target = new EntityReference(Letter.EntityLogicalName, _letterId),
    DestinationQueueId = _destinationQueueId
};

// Set the WorkerId of the QueueItemProperties to indicate who is working
// on this particular queue item. If there were any custom attributes
// defined for the QueueItem Entity, it would be possible to set
// those here, as well.
routeRequest.QueueItemProperties = new QueueItem
{
    WorkerId = new EntityReference("systemuser", _userId),
};

// Execute the Request
_serviceProxy.Execute(routeRequest);

     

    You only need to specify the SourceQueueId attribute if the activity is already in a queue and you want to route it to another queue. For adding an item to a queue that was not in a queue just ignore that attribute

    That part is the reference to the user who is "working on" the queue item, it is only an option part if you want to assign the queue item to someone to work on it. If you just want to add the item to a queue you can ignore that part

    If you don't know the id of the queue you can always get it by navigating to Settings --> Business Management --> Queues.

    Open the queue you need and you will see the id in the window title. You can also copy a link and the link will include the GUID of the queue:
