Peru — NIW filings
USCIS petition-stage filing flows — Form I-140, EB-2 national-interest waiver, counted by the petitioner’s country of birth. This is the filing population, not the appeal record shown elsewhere on the site.
Share of decided NIW petitions that were approved — nationwide, across all countries, reflecting the petitions decided each quarter, not those filed in it. USCIS does not publish denials by country of birth, so there is no per-country NIW rate; this national figure is the only NIW rate USCIS publishes. Implied wait near 7.3 years. (S27)
These are filing flows, not a rate: a quarter’s approvals decide petitions filed earlier, and denials are not published by country, so received and approved do not divide into an approval rate.

Filing flows differ by country; the judgment of any petition happens at the profile level. The coded record shows how each profile is read. See where your profile sits — 90 seconds →
