You are also wondering what is going on with the I-824 form and why is it taking so long?

 

We understand your concern. If your case is at the Vermont Service Center, it is currently taking 16 months. The Texas Service Center is not much better, with a time of 15 months. At the California Service Center, the time is 5.5 months.

 

These processing times can change from moment to moment, so I recommend that you keep checking the processing times on USCIS.gov.

 

Each situation is different and depends on where your I-824 application is located. In some cases, it may be better to file a new petition. To make the best decision, we suggest you schedule a meeting with us. We offer paid strategy sessions to help you decide whether you should file a new petition or continue with the I-824.
