What these numbers say
In FY2026 Q2 USCIS received 7,803 I-290B filings and decided 7,314 of them. 26,407 were still waiting when the quarter closed — about 3.6 quarters of work at the rate the agency was clearing them. The median case took 3.9 months.
60.6% 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.
