What these numbers say
In FY2026 Q2 USCIS received 19,233 I-131 (Travel Documents, Parole Documents) filings and decided 14,776 of them. 113,901 were still waiting when the quarter closed — about 7.7 quarters of work at the rate the agency was clearing them. The median case took 15.2 months.
8.6% of the decisions made were denials. That figure is shown because it is published, not because it is a verdict: USCIS releases no measure that separates an office applying the law strictly from one receiving weaker filings, so nothing on this site grades on it.
Other I-131 categories
USCIS reports I-131 as separate categories, and they do not run at the same speed.
