Based on your category and PD, the I-130 processing time with USCIS typically ranges from about 8 to 15 months in most cases, though it can be faster (around 6–9 months) at lighter-load service centers or longer (15–24+ months) if there are backlogs, transfers, or additional review requests. The exact timeline depends on the assigned service center, completeness of your petition, and background checks, which can add hidden delays. In practical terms, most applicants with a similar filing date can expect approval sometime between early to mid or late 2027, but the overall green card process will also depend on visa bulletin movement for the F2A category after approval.
