N-400 — Application for Naturalization · official USCIS data published September 17, 2026.
Estimate your completion window
An N-400 received January 1, 2025 is estimated to finish between February 1, 2026 and June 16, 2026.
Posted range for this category: 13 months – 17.5 months · national median (upper bound) 15.5 months across 90 offices.
✓ Your case is older than USCIS’s posted timeframe — you can submit a “case outside normal processing time” inquiry now (cases received on/before April 18, 2025).
Estimates apply USCIS’s own published range to your date — they are not a prediction of your individual case or legal advice. See the methodology.
