About Immigration Hub
Immigration Hub collects the U.S. immigration numbers that the government publishes every month and quarter, and keeps them as history. Official sources show only the latest figures; here you can see how a priority date, a processing time or a backlog has moved over the years, with the source of every number on the same page.
The site is for green card applicants, their families and employers who want to check the official figures quickly. It is free to use and supported by advertising.
Where the numbers come from
| Data | Official source | How often we update |
|---|---|---|
| Visa Bulletin | U.S. Department of State | Monthly, from the official bulletin PDF. Issues since October 2015. |
| Which chart USCIS uses each month | USCIS, Adjustment of Status Filing Charts | Monthly. Every designation since October 2015. |
| Average processing time by form | USCIS monthly report to Congress | Checked weekly; USCIS publishes monthly. |
| I-140, EB-2 NIW and green card backlog | USCIS quarterly reports | Checked weekly; USCIS publishes quarterly. |
| PERM and prevailing wage times | U.S. Department of Labor, OFLC | Checked weekly; DOL updates monthly. |
Earlier issues that the agencies no longer host come from copies kept by the Internet Archive. Works of the U.S. government are not subject to copyright in the United States.
How we collect and check the data
- Numbers are read directly from the agencies' published files (PDF, CSV and spreadsheets) by our own scripts, not typed by hand.
- Every page shows the date of its data and links to the source document.
- When a source file has an obvious error, such as a wrong date in a report header, we use the correct period from the file itself and keep the original number unchanged.
- If a new file would make the history shorter than before, the update is stopped and checked rather than published.
- Changes such as "advanced 3 months" or an approval share are simple calculations from the published figures, explained on each page.
What we do not do
- We do not give legal advice or tell you what to file. For your own case, speak with a qualified immigration attorney or accredited representative.
- We do not predict future Visa Bulletin dates or processing times.
- We do not collect case details or receipt numbers, and we do not sell leads to law firms.
- We are not a government website. Official forms and filing are only on uscis.gov, state.gov and dol.gov.
Corrections
If you find a number that does not match the official source, email contact@etfshopping.com with the page address. We check it against the source and correct it, usually within a few days.
