USCIS processing times, by form and office

Real case processing times pulled directly from USCIS's own published data — not an estimate. Each entry links to its own page with context on who the category applies to. New entries are added as they're published; for the authoritative, always-current number, check USCIS's official processing times tool directly.

USCIS data as of November 5, 2026
Why this directory exists.

USCIS publishes these figures one lookup at a time — you can't compare offices, and you can't see which office handles your county without searching ZIP by ZIP. This directory puts every published figure in one place and pairs each field office with the counties it actually serves. It's maintained by AskDM, a self-petition course and AI case builder built by a practicing immigration paralegal: the same person who prepares these filings decides what belongs in the package. A long wait is the one part of this process nobody can shorten — but it is time you can spend getting your evidence and petition fully organized instead of waiting unprepared.
