Frequently asked questions

How long does I-90 take in 2026?

In Apr–Jun 2026, USCIS completed half of all I-90 cases within 5.5 months of filing (median, USCIS quarterly report). Your own case can take longer: half of all cases take longer than the median.

Is I-90 processing getting faster or slower?

Slower: the median was 4.5 months in Apr–Jun 2025 and 5.5 months in Apr–Jun 2026. The longest median since FY2022 was 11.8 months in Jan–Mar 2023.

How many I-90 cases are pending?

506,891 I-90 cases were pending at the end of Apr–Jun 2026. USCIS received 208,311 and completed 254,227 cases in that quarter.

Why is this different from the time on the USCIS website?

The USCIS Check Case Processing Times tool shows how long it took to complete 80% of cases at a specific office over the past six months, so it is usually longer than the median shown here. Use the USCIS tool for case inquiries; use the history here to see the trend.
