We have used the old method cycle time to measure processing time since As described in more detail below, it relies on aggregate pending and receipt counts, not individual case processing information. In , we began using actual case record information for greater accuracy of the information we posted on our website.
Listed below are the forms that we currently post processing times for and the methodology associated with each form. We are working to move forms that use the cycle time methodology to the processing time methodology. This is defined as the lower range value. The upper range value is normally the lower range value x 1. For example, if the cycle time is 2 months, then the upper range value would be 2 months x 1.
In this example, the range posted on the website for this form for April would be 2 Months to 3 Months. Processing time is the number of months that elapse between the date we receive an application, petition, or request and the date we complete the application, petition, or request that is, when we approved or denied it for all cases for a specific form for the latest completed 6 months. We make this calculation for every Form I application that we complete in a specific period in our example here, this would be April We then calculate the median value or 50th percentile for all Form I applications we completed from November to April inclusive, which represents the lower range value.
For example, for April for Form I, our processing times ranged from This means that we adjudicated half our cases in In this example, the range posted on the website for Form I for April would be The processing time methodology provides the most precise and up-to-date information available because it is based on the most recently completed cases.
The cycle time methodology provides an estimate of case processing times, using slightly older data. We provide a history of our median historical processing times for select forms. This information includes the cumulative median processing time by fiscal year Oct. Visa regressed Is and revoked petitions or applications are excluded. We generally process cases in the order we receive them, and we will update this page each month. The estimated time range displayed is based on data captured approximately two months prior to updating the page.
