USCIS Community Forum & Timeline FAQs
Why Share Your USCIS Timeline?
By anonymous submission of your electronic IOE case status timelines, you help everyone see real processing times. Aggregated data reveals service center backlogs and processing trends.
How Is My Privacy Protected?
You don't need an account or your real name. Your timeline is posted under a random pen name (like Resilient Applicant), and we keep only a scrambled form of your internet address, to limit spam. Please don't post anything that identifies you.
How Do I Check My Hidden API Status?
Follow our step-by-step guides to copy the case data from your own myUSCIS account, or use our free Chrome extension to fill it in with one click while you're signed in to myUSCIS.
Frequently asked questions about the USCIS forum
How is CaseStatusAPI different from standard forums like VisaJourney or Reddit?
Stories here are typed in by the people who share them, as on any forum. What we add is your own case: a report reads the case data in your own myUSCIS account, so every event code is dated and explained, and Q&A searches what others have shared.
What is a "Silent Update" in my USCIS case timeline?
A silent update is a change to your case record (a new "last updated" time) with no new public status. The record doesn't say what changed. The case data in your own myUSCIS account shows when it happened; the public status page doesn't.
Can I ask questions about specific error codes?
Yes. Community Q&A at the top searches what applicants have shared here and in public immigration forums. If you see an unfamiliar code (like FTA0 or AMAM), search for it or post it here to see what others in a similar spot shared.
