Open FOIA appeals grouped by age (refiled)

This is a second version of an earlier request, filed to ask for Track 1, USCIS's simple processing track. It asks for counts of open FOIA appeals (requests asking USCIS to review its decision), grouped by the number of working days since USCIS received them, in CSV format.

ProcessingExtension invoked 22 business days since filing (32 calendar days)

Figures as of Oct 17, 2026. Check after Nov 16, 2026: if you are reading later than that, these figures may be out of date.

These figures are more than 30 days old. They may not reflect what has happened since Oct 17, 2026.

Extension invoked
USCIS told the requester it would invoke the 10-working-day "unusual circumstances" extension the law allows (5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(B)). What an extension means
