  • N-600 (Certificate of Citizenship): 6.5 to 14.5 months
  • N-600K (Citizenship and Issuance of Certificate Under Section 322): 10 to 22.5 months
  • N-400 (Naturalization): 12 to 17.5 months

Note that sometimes cases take longer to process than the shown time. With each processing time, the USCIS also gives you a case inquiry date and instructions for submitting your inquiries.

Besides checking the processing times, you can also see how your application or petition is progressing. The following tool uses your Receipt Number to provide you the information.
