## How to read these figures

- Approval share of completions is approvals divided by all recorded completions, which include denials, referrals to immigration court and administrative closures; it is not a grant rate of decided cases.
- FY2022 and FY2023 count decisions made, including decisions not yet served. FY2025 counts decisions made for adjudications before 2024-01-01, decisions served for adjudications from 2024-01-01, and administrative closures. Shares are compared only within one quarter.
- A number USCIS withheld is marked withheld and never reconstructed from totals; quarters without a verified office report are not interpolated.
- Branches and interview locations do not inherit a parent office’s statistics. Counts do not predict an individual result.
