Thanks for the info.  When I posted my question our estimated timeframe had been changed from unknown to 4 months, then it changed to 3 months, and today I logged in and it has changed to 12 months!  This is after we have already been waiting 10 months. We're now facing a situation where she will be expelled from Germany due to the German government's opinion that no real progress is being made in her getting a green card, and we'll become separated for years and our home will be broken.  So in light of this dramatic change in timeframe, what would you advise?  Is it worth requesting to expedite through USCIS or will that not likely change anything?  Should I contact a congressional representative?  Should I sue them?

I advise you to make the necessary adjustments needed to deal with an 18 to 24 month process.  In the meantime, stop looking at any other "estimated timeframe".

Estimated times on portal is a random number.

 

Here's example of somebody with 4 months to decision on their N-400. Meanwhile they got approved already and waiting for oath...

 

 

There was also an example of somebody who just filed 9 days ago and their estimated time says "Your case is taking longer than usual".

 

Pay 0 attention to it as it's misleading.
