USCIS publishes no times per office. Nationally, I-485 (Family) cases filed today are most likely decided in 6–12 months. See the national ranges.

For now, from our reading of the numbers:

USCIS decided 46% fewer of these cases in Apr–Jun 2026 than usual. Plan for the later end of the range.

Backlog over time

Time to clear backlog is how long the office would need to decide every pending case at last quarter’s pace. It is not your wait: the pile includes cases on hold and cases USCIS cannot decide yet.

How to read the chart

USCIS sometimes moves pending cases between offices. The chart leaves it out for quarters in which the office decided fewer than 100 of these cases.
