Has USCIS left your case pending well past the normal processing time? When an I-485, I-130, N-400, or work-permit application sits for months - sometimes years - past the normal time, the delay itself is what you need to document. For a mandamus action (asking a federal court to compel USCIS to act), the evidence that matters is the timeline: when you filed, the normal processing time, how long you have waited, and every inquiry you have made. Pendwrit is a private log for exactly that. You record your own case-process events, and Pendwrit organizes them into a delay timeline you can bring to an immigration attorney. WHAT PENDWRIT TRACKS - Each pending case: form type, receipt date, the normal processing time you note, and an optional field office - A delay timeline: every RFE, inquiry, CIS Ombudsman request, and congressional contact, in order - The processing-time gap: how long you have waited against the normal time you entered - A reference tab: how USCIS processing works, the mandamus procedure (28 U.S.C. 1361), and how to raise a delay The official tools tell you a status; Pendwrit helps you build the record of the delay you bring to an attorney. FREE - 1 case, with its receipt date, delay timeline, and processing-time gap - Up to 10 delay events on that case - The full USCIS-process and mandamus reference - App Lock (Face ID), free for everyone PRO - 19.99 USD per year, with a 7-day free trial - Delay evidence timeline PDF - receipt date, normal processing time, time elapsed, and every inquiry in order. A record to bring your attorney. - Mandamus prep checklist PDF - your dates, the gap, and the inquiries you have made, organized to bring to an immigration attorney. - Unlimited cases - track every pending application at once, each with its own receipt date, delay timeline, and processing-time gap. - Processing-time milestones and overdue reminders for every case, with optional Calendar export. Free shows the gap; Pro adds the alerts. - Attach photos of your USCIS notices - camera or library - to the case or event they belong to. Display only, kept on your device. - Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets for your most overdue case and its processing-time gap. LIFETIME - 49.99 USD once - Everything in Pro, owned outright. WHAT PENDWRIT IS NOT - Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to USCIS, DHS, any government agency, any immigration-services organization, or any law firm. - Does not provide legal advice, determine whether a delay is "unreasonable," predict any outcome, or recommend attorneys. - Records only civil case-process events. It does not collect A-numbers, passport numbers, or any government identifier, and is solely for documenting administrative processing delay. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your records live on your iPhone. There is no account, and nothing is uploaded to a server. The reference content and gap math run on your device, drawn from publicly available information. Face ID lock is in Settings. Pendwrit is designed exclusively for iPhone. SUPPORT RESOURCES (in the Reference tab) USCIS Case Status, the CIS Ombudsman, your congressional casework office, and AILA find-a-lawyer. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS The annual subscription auto-renews until canceled; it renews within 24 hours before the period ends unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours prior. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. Lifetime is a single charge with no recurring billing. IMPORTANT DATA NOTICE Pendwrit stores all data locally on your iPhone. Beyond PDF generation, there is no built-in export, import, or backup.
