Case Status Update: Delayed I-751 Processing Times

As you may know, processing times at USCIS have grown in recent years due to COVID-19 and the backlogs caused by anti-immigrant policies from the previous administration. We want to reassure you that your case is in queue to be processed, and provide you with some helpful information.

We must first recognize the frustration our clients may be feeling as we wait for your case to be decided. Please know that we check all client case statuses several times per month, and take action when we see a case has exceeded its posted normal processing time.

I-751s are currently at: February 2020

Important: We ask you to schedule a consultation with us about Naturalization, which you may qualify for now or soon. Not only will this process result in U.S. Citizenship, but it will force your I-751 to be processed sooner.

As a reminder, you can check your case status at https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do at any time, using just your case Receipt Number. Your overall processing time is typically based on your receipt date and which USCIS office is processing your case. Your receipt number can be found near the top of your Form I-797C Receipt Notice, and will include three letters followed by ten numbers (example: IOE1234567890). Your Receipt Date can also be found on the same notice.
