Could Moving Help You Get a Green Card Faster?


USCIS field office processing times vary widely by location

Apr 13, 2018


Location matters for getting a green card or citizenship faster—in some cases by more than half a year.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) recently published new data about wait times for two of the most important immigration forms: green card applications (Form I-485), and applications for U.S. citizenship (Form N-400).

We analyzed this data and created an infographic to highlight the wide differences in application processing times across various USCIS field offices in South Florida.
