Appeals filed before April 2019
The IAD is committed to completing appeals filed before April 2019 as quickly as possible. Assuming continued capacity and a stable complement of decision-makers, it is anticipated that these older appeals can be completed and still allow the IAD to meet the service standard for new appeals filed after April 2019.
The chart below provides an estimate of when each regional office will have completed at least 80% of the pending appeals filed before April 2019.
