TRAC reports that, as of the end of January 2016, open cases in U.S. Immigration Court have been waiting for an average of 667 days, a new high. This is 3.7 percent longer than the 643 days average wait time at the end of FY 2015 (September 2015) and is 17.6 percent higher than it was at the end of FY 2014. Because this measure is for open cases, more processing time will generally be needed before a case is closed. The longest times were seen in Colorado, where cases have waiting for an average of 933 days. The next longest wait was in Illinois (876 days), followed by Nebraska (862 days), Michigan (847 days) and Ohio (822 days).
