Data discipline

Current sources are separated from legacy context.

The blocked processing-times API is not presented as live data. Current metrics come from published USCIS CSV and XLSX reports; FY2026 median history was hard-refreshed from the rendered USCIS table through August 30, 2026.

Monthly

August 2026 metrics for 6 service-wide forms.

Quarterly

2026 Q3 receipts, completions, and inventory.

Historical

National medians through August 30, 2026 for select classifications.

Legacy

March 2022 office estimates are labeled as stale context.
