I have applied in May 2020, received the biometric reuse notice in January 2021 and I’m still waiting for an interview. My field office is Miami, FL.. Many applicant like us that applied during the USCIS closure due to pandemic are in the same situation. I had the same issue in the past with the USCIS website when I try to look my case status during weekend. Try again tomorrow monday.

thank you O J and Sal D much appreciated. i see on lawfully 50 percent of the petitions were granted and ~40% are in biometric stage. i am guessing Florida offices are overwhelmed. i will check today again the website. it looks like others had the same issues.

Importantly, USCIS uses Fiscal Years (FY), which run from October 1 of the prior year through September 30 of the year described. For instance, FY 2021 would run from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021. Form I-130 (officially called the “Petition for Alien Relative”): There is a net trend from FY 2017 until FY 2021 of increasing processing times, with an average increase of 1-2 months until FY 2021, where processing times average 10.2 months. Form I-485 (“Application for Adjustment of Status”): Family-based green card applications (in other words, immediate relatives or spouses of a U.S. citizen) have seen a significant increase in the processing time between FY 2017 and FY 2021, with FY 2021 processing times averaging 13 months. As of November 2021, the average time across all Field Offices is around 19 months. This backlog is largely due to the USCIS office closures amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
