Waiting on USCIS is stressful enough

Most of us check the status page far too often, and it usually says the same thing it said yesterday. We built the app so you can stop.

It checks, so you don't have to

Your status refreshes automatically, and the app remembers every change. Put your phone down: a push notification tells you when USCIS updates a case.

You see the whole story

Every status change is saved in a simple timeline, so you can look back at what happened and when instead of trying to remember.

The whole family in one place

Track your own case, your spouse's and your kids' side by side. One screen instead of five browser tabs.

Set up in about a minute

A quick sign-in and one number, and you can track USCIS case status directly from your phone.

  1. Sign in

    Use Apple, Google or email. We never ask for your Social Security number, passport number or bank details.

  2. Add your receipt number

    It's the 13-character number on your USCIS notice, three letters followed by ten digits. Not sure where to find it?

  3. See where your case stands

    Your current status, full timeline and progress appear right away, with alerts and estimated timelines to follow.

Processing Insights

Know roughly when to expect an answer

Waiting is easier when you know what's normal. Processing Insights turns your case into a timeline you can actually plan around.

  • Estimated time and expected dateHow long USCIS is taking for your type of case, and roughly when yours should wrap up, shown next to a progress bar.
  • On time, or running lateA clear signal that your case is inside the expected window, and a heads-up if it has gone past it.
  • Your likely next stepWhat usually happens next, such as an RFE, a biometrics appointment or an interview, and how likely each one is. Swipe to see the top three.
  • Community timelineHow long similar cases are really taking: how many days until 50%, 75% and 90% of them were approved. When there isn't enough data for your case type, we use USCIS's published processing time instead.

Estimates, not promises. Every case is different, and USCIS can be faster or slower than usual.

Everything you need while you wait

Simple, focused and ad-free.

USCIS case status notifications

Get a push notification when USCIS updates a case, even when the app is closed. No more refreshing the website.

A timeline of every change

Each status update is saved with its date, so you can see exactly what happened and when.

See how far along you are

A progress bar on every case shows how far it has come.

Days elapsed, your way

Tap to switch between the date, calendar days and business days. Business days skip weekends and US federal holidays.

The whole family in one place

Add your own case, your spouse's and your kids' and follow them side by side on one screen.

Form and service center, at a glance

See the form type, category and processing center for each receipt number. Add details like field office to sharpen your estimates.

Still useful when USCIS isn't

If the USCIS site is down or you're offline, the app shows the last status it has and tells you so, instead of an error.

Sign in your way

Use Apple, Google or email. We never ask for your Social Security number, passport number or bank details.

Community discussions

Ask questions and share updates with other applicants on Reddit, right from the app's settings.

Questions people ask

What can the app tell me about my case?
Your current status and the full timeline of changes, a progress bar, days elapsed, and the form and service center. Processing Insights adds your estimated processing time and expected date, whether you're on time or running late, your likely next steps, and community estimates from similar cases.
Is this app affiliated with USCIS?
No. It's an independent app, not affiliated with or endorsed by USCIS or any government agency, and it doesn't give legal advice. For anything official, check with USCIS directly.
What do I need to start tracking?
A quick sign-in (Apple, Google or email) and the receipt number from your USCIS notice. It's 13 characters, three letters followed by ten digits. That's all you need to track USCIS case status from your phone.
How do USCIS case status notifications work?
Turn on notifications and the app sends a push alert when USCIS updates a case, even when the app is closed. You can track USCIS case status and view your complete update history at any time.
How accurate are the estimates?
They're estimates, not promises. They come from USCIS's published processing times and from how similar cases in the app have actually moved. Every case is different, and USCIS can be faster or slower than usual.
What happens if the USCIS website is down?
The app shows the last status it has and tells you it couldn't refresh, so you're never left staring at an error. It updates again once USCIS is back.
Can I track my spouse's or my family's cases too?
Yes. Add as many of their receipt numbers as you need and follow every case side by side in one place. Please only add cases you're authorized to follow.
Which cases can I track?
Anything with a USCIS receipt number: green card applications, work permits, family and employment petitions, travel documents, citizenship applications and more.
Is this USCIS case tracker available on iPhone and Android?
