USCIS field offices in Colorado: questions

How many citizenship applications are pending in Colorado?

11,333 N-400 applications were pending at USCIS field offices in Colorado at the end of Apr–Jun 2026. Those offices decided 1,260 in the quarter (−65% vs a year ago).

Which USCIS field office do I go to in Colorado?

Your field office is set by your home ZIP code. Your interview notice names it, and the official USCIS office locator (uscis.gov/about-us/find-a-uscis-office/field-offices) shows the office for any ZIP code.

Why are USCIS field offices slower now?

Field offices have been deciding far fewer applications in 2026 than a year earlier, while new filings keep arriving, so pending cases are piling up, and approval rates have fallen too. USCIS does not publish a reason for each office; its quarterly data shows the slowdown at almost every office at once, which points to agency-wide causes rather than anything about one office.
