It's very frustrating the USCIS national average was 7.9 months yesterday. Today it is 10.2 months. USCIS won't allow inquiries under "normal processing times." but the "normal" time keeps changing. I could have made inquiries in April. Now it looks like I can't until mid June! Even my congressman can't get anything more than "it's within NORMAL processing times." if he inquires for me.

I got 10.2 months, but it says that data is as of Dec 31, 2012, but if you click on that link at the bottom that says "View national volumes and trends for all applications" the data is through January….

I think I was mistaken. I now see 7.9 again.

No you weren't mistaken...their website is apparently FUBAR, just like their I-129F processing.

How can we expect them to do anything right, if something like a website display is so messed up.

Does not instill confidence, that is for sure.

If K-1 processing was at 10.2 months as of December wouldn't that mean most people from February 2012 onwards wouldn't be approved? That can't be right...

Yes they are not consistent with anything they say. Too much bureaucracy to get anything done. (e.g. asking for the same documents over and over.. wastes time and money) They make something simple so complicated!

That average also includes TSC and NBC.

Which means it is a meaningless statistic.

Which means Mark Schwartz, USCIS Chief Information Officer, is a #### #### idiot.
