The quarter at the Nebraska Service Center
That pile is 12.0 quarters of work at the quarter's pace of 388 decisions, and the 3rd largest of 6 centers. It compares workload. It isn't a wait for any one case.

What these numbers can't tell you
- How long your own case will take. USCIS publishes a pile and a quarter's decisions per office. It doesn't publish a wait per office.
- Where your case is. USCIS can move a case between offices while it waits, and this file counts it wherever it sits on the quarter's last day. USCIS says it sends a transfer notice when it moves a case, and an interview or appointment notice names the office to go to.
- Why a count moved. Cases sent in from another office and cases newly filed both show as received.
For the office's address, hours and the area it serves, use USCIS's own list of field offices.
Timelines people shared from the Nebraska Service Center
USCIS doesn't publish how long one office takes, so this part comes from people whose I-485 was here. Their dates are self-reported, and each timeline is checked before it shows.
Nobody has shared a timeline from the Nebraska Service Center yet. Yours would be the first.
