Short answer

How can I see my full immigration case timeline?

Give your AI your receipt number and ask for a chronological list of all updates. Your agent uses the get_case_status tool to pull every recorded action from USCIS. You get a clear history of every status change and milestone.

The results you get

What your AI delivers

The AI turns raw USCIS data into a readable history.

TIMELINE

Chronological history

The AI organizes every status update by date. You see exactly when your case moved from one stage to the next.

STATUS

Current state

Your agent identifies the most recent action taken on the application. This tells you if your case is pending, approved, or requires more info.

ALERTS

Missing updates

The AI spots gaps in the timeline. It flags if a case has been stuck in one status for an unusual amount of time.

HUMAN

Legal review

The AI provides the raw data and timeline. You or your lawyer must interpret these updates to decide on next legal steps.

The workflow

What your AI does when a case number is provided.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and the USCIS database.

  1. Identify the case

    Your agent extracts the receipt number from your message to prepare the request.

    get_case_status

  2. Fetch data

    The AI calls the USCIS database to pull the latest information for that specific ID.

    get_case_status

  3. Build timeline

    The agent parses the raw status updates into a sequential list of events.

    get_case_status

  4. Summarize progress

    The AI explains the current status in plain English so you know what happened last.
