A dashed frame is a quarter whose workbook no one kept: USCIS keeps only its last four quarters, and the Internet Archive holds no copy of FY24 Q2.

Why USCIS's own case page shows a different time
This is USCIS's median: half of the cases it finished in a quarter took less time than this. Its processing-times page prints a different figure, the time within which it finished 80% of recent cases, so it reads longer. Both are USCIS's, and the hub sets them side by side for the I-140.

What this data includes
USCIS quarterly form data: Every USCIS form's receipts, approvals, denials, pending count and MEDIAN months to a decision, per quarter, as USCIS publishes them. The median isn't the 80th-percentile figure on USCIS's processing-times page.
