N-400 questions applicants actually ask
Why is USCIS N-400 different from the official estimate?
Official estimates are broad benchmarks. Individual waits can vary because of missing documents, identity checks, appointment availability, workload, and local office capacity.
When should I trust waits shared by readers?
Use waits shared by readers as context once enough similar people have shared their experience. Official agency messages should still come first.
