Interesting I-751/N-400 Statistics

[Crazy Cat 41,810]

Here are some interesting statistics. Seems N-400s, compared to I-751s, are being processed at astounding numbers:

For the 4th Qtr of FY 2022

 I-751s Received During the Qtr: 40,081

 I-751s Processed During the Qtr: 24,011 

 I-751s Still pending: 270,925

----------  

 N-400s Received During the Qtr: 194,819   

 N-400s Processed During the Qtr: 323,793

 N-400s Still Pending: 543,838

 

There were roughly 10% of the N-400s denied.

Thank you for the stats, I wonder how many cases were stuck in "Decision cannot be made" limbo. Do you reckon 5% or less?

The astounding number of 751s pending should be a clear indicator to USCIS that they’re a waste of money and resources for both ends. 
If you want to prove the bona fide of a relationship, just pay an impromptu house visit on any night and you’ll see.

It starts to feel like I-751 is just a side hustle of the USCIS to make sure they have enough coffee machines functioning in the office. LMAO

Yep.  They can just collect the I-751 fee and sit on it until the immigrant pays again to file the N-400....They cut out most of their internal costs by not processing removal of conditions.   .

I will admit USCIS seems to be rapidly reducing the N-400 backlog.

There's a huge number of N400s still to be processed but it seems like the goal is to make it as close to zero as possible... One can only hope that in a few months when the numbers are down this type of effort is used for other forms!

At their current rate, N-400 processing will be extremely fast later this year.

The I751 is simply a cash cow.

Easy solution - USCIS doesn't get the fee until the petition is complete. Would probably cause USCIS to get it's act together overnight.
