I’m curious which one exactly new and which one is old ? egov.uscis.gov is new one or old one ?

Old one

"The US immigration process requires a great deal of knowledge, planning, time, patience, and a significant amount of money.  It is quite a journey!"

- Some old child of the 50's & 60's on his laptop 

 

Senior Master Sergeant, US Air Force- Retired (after 20+ years)- Missile Systems Maintenance & Titan 2 ICBM Launch Crew Duty (200+ Alert tours)

Registered Nurse- Retired- I practiced in the areas of Labor & Delivery, Home Health, Adolescent Psych, & Adult Psych.

IT Professional- Retired- Web Site Design, Hardware Maintenance, Compound Pharmacy Software Trainer, On-site go live support, Database Manager, App Designer.

______________________________________

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

I called USCIS , the officer said the processing time for the MSC cases is 6 months. Hopefully she's right!

Is processing time the time it takes to get a "ready to schedule for interview"?  If so, our MSC processing time was about 3 months.  Now already waiting about 3 1/2 months in "ready to schedule for interview" mode.

Well, if this is the case, that's pretty great news. I had a friend who did ROC last year and it took almost 1.5 years to get the whole thing completed (and they had zero red flags, not from a high fraud country, etc.)

If 6 months is the "average" wait time, it's understandable that some cases will go slower or faster.
