Introducing I-GUIDE STAT - Our New U.S. Immigration Court Statistics Website!
73 immigration courts, 1,507 judges, and applicants from 219 countries. Now you can explore how your judge and court decide cases, compare outcomes for asylum and other forms of protection from removal, review waiting times and appeals, and even calculate your estimated chances for free based on your judge, nationality, and whether you have an attorney.
But what truly sets I-GUIDE STAT apart is not the amount of data - it is how we calculate it.
We use official EOIR data obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and process it using our own methodology to better reflect how immigration courts actually handle cases:
- One family, one decision. We count the decision for the principal applicant. If a family of five receives protection, that counts as one approval, not five.
- A more meaningful approval rate. The approval rate is calculated using only decisions on the merits: approved ÷ (approved + denied). In absentia removal orders, denials without a hearing, closed cases, and terminated proceedings do not distort the rate. The "Merits Hearings Only" filter further limits results to decisions issued at final merits hearings.
- In-depth analysis. Explore statistics by individual court, judge, nationality, time period, and attorney representation.
- Up-to-date information. Statistics are updated monthly, with data currently available through August 31, 2026.
The website also features an interactive U.S. map, court and judge rankings, appeal statistics, case backlogs, and waiting times. It is available in six languages: Russian, English, Spanish, Ukrainian, Portuguese, and Chinese.
Basic statistics are free for everyone.
If you already have Premium in the I-GUIDE USCIS & EOIR Tracker app, you automatically have access to the full in-depth statistics on the website - no separate subscription is required. Simply sign in using the same account you use in the app. You can also purchase a subscription directly on the website.
Our goal is to help you go beyond the overall approval rate and better understand how cases are handled in your court and what decisions your judge makes.
