USCIS case timeline tracker
Put your case dates in one timeline: how many days it has been pending, when 80% of similar cases are done, and whether USCIS takes an inquiry about it yet.
Estimates only. USCIS processing times change every month and differ by form and office. Copy them from the USCIS processing times page. This tool does not see your case and cannot tell you when it will be decided. General information, not legal advice.
The “Received date” on your receipt notice (Form I-797C), not the notice date.
From the processing times page: “80% of cases are completed within” this many months.
Shown under the processing time on the same page.
Other dates (optional)
Good to know
- Check your status online with the 13-character receipt number on your notice (3 letters and 10 numbers). See how to check your USCIS case status.
- USCIS takes an e-Request for a “case outside normal processing time” only once your received date is before the posted inquiry date.
- If you get a Request for Evidence, the clock is different: answer by the date on the notice. See what to do with an RFE.
- Moved? Report it within 10 days so you get your notices: how to change your address.
