SELF-REPORTED BY APPLICANTS · MODERATED · NOT OFFICIAL DATA

Community-reported timelines

No timelines are published yet. We publish a step only when at least 10 moderated reports cover it; until then this page only collects reports.

Official processing times say how long USCIS took for most cases. These are dates applicants tell us about their own case. They are not checked against USCIS records, they come from people who chose to share, and they are no guide to any one case. For official numbers see USCIS processing times.

Dates only. Please do not enter names, receipt numbers or A-numbers anywhere: there is no field for them, and nothing you type is published as you typed it.

How reports are published

• Every report is read by a person before it can count. Reports with impossible or contradictory dates are rejected.
• A step (for example filing to interview) is shown only when at least 10 moderated reports cover it, for all reports or for one office or consulate.
• Only cases whose first date falls in the last 36 months count, so old cases do not drag the numbers.
• Outliers: when a step has 8 or more reports, reports more than 1.5 times the interquartile range outside the middle half are left out (Tukey's rule), and the table counts only what is kept.
• We show the median and the middle half of reports, never single cases.
• These numbers are kept separate from official data everywhere on the site and are always labelled as self-reported.

What is stored

The form, category, place, the dates you entered, the outcome, and the time of the report. Your email address, if you give one, is used once to send the confirmation link and is not stored. To limit spam we keep, for two days, a one-way code made from your network address and the date; it cannot be turned back into the address. Details are on the privacy page.
