About PetitionPace

PetitionPace exists because USCIS information is scattered, jargon-heavy, and changes constantly. We make the basics findable.

What PetitionPace is

PetitionPace is an independent information site that publishes plain-English summaries of publicly available USCIS data: processing-time ranges, filing fees from the official USCIS fee schedule, and descriptions of what common forms are for.

We are not affiliated with USCIS, DHS, or any government agency. We are not a law firm. We do not provide legal advice, assess eligibility, recommend what to file, or prepare forms.

What PetitionPace is not

We are not a substitute for a licensed immigration attorney or DOJ-accredited representative. Immigration law is complex and fact-specific. The right form, strategy, and timing for your case depends on your individual circumstances — factors that only a qualified professional who knows your situation can properly evaluate.

If you need legal advice about your immigration case, please consult a licensed immigration attorney or a DOJ-accredited representative.

Our data sources

Everything we publish is sourced from public USCIS and government data:

  • Fees: USCIS Form G-1055 (fee schedule, effective April 1, 2024) — verified against official USCIS form pages
  • Processing times: USCIS processing-times tool (egov.uscis.gov/processing-times) — reviewed June 2026, marked as estimates because they change monthly
  • Form descriptions: USCIS official form pages (uscis.gov/forms)

We date-stamp all data and mark unverified estimates clearly. Our methodology page explains our verification process in detail.

DATA-GATE: how we handle unverified data

Processing times change monthly, so any snapshot is quickly out of date. For pages whose primary value is an unverified processing-time range, we add a "noindex" tag (preventing search engine indexing) and exclude the page from our sitemap — so search engines only index pages with verified fee and form data. We always link to the live USCIS tool for authoritative current ranges.

Who built this

PetitionPace is part of the Solmoor family of independent information tools. We also publish tools on other topics — starting a U.S. business (Lanzamo) and visa requirements before travel (VisaGlance).
