Some processing time reports, including the one below, are received by AILA directly
from the Service Center. In order to bring you the most up-to-date information
possible, these processing times may be posted to AILA's site before they are posted
to the USCIS website. If you are checking with the USCIS 800 number to see if
your case is outside normal processing time, the operators there go by
the processing times on the USCIS site. Therefore, before making an inquiry with
the 800 number, please check the USCIS website
