uscis-tracker.github.io is a minimal, free, open-source tool that turns your USCIS case-service JSON into a readable timeline entirely inside your browser — nothing is sent to a server. It is a solid, privacy-first single-purpose tool. It does exactly one thing (parse I-485 case JSON) and nothing else — no interview prep, no multi-language support.

## At a glance

| Feature | My Interview Hub | USCIS Tracker |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Price | Free tracker, $29.99 one-time for interview prep | Free |
| Data handling | Local parsing in your browser, nothing stored | Local parsing in your browser, nothing stored |
| Quick fetch by receipt number | Yes (opens the USCIS API URL, then paste the JSON — CORS blocks true auto-fetch for any browser tool) | Yes, same approach — opens the USCIS API URL, then paste the JSON |
| Event code glossary | Yes, with plain-English explanations | Yes, via NIEM schema definitions |
| Languages | 13 supported locales | English only |
| Marriage interview questions | 400+ questions across 10 categories | Not offered |

## What USCIS Tracker does well

- Genuinely free and open-source with no account, no signup, and no data leaving your browser — as privacy-respecting as this kind of tool gets
- Does one job (parsing I-485 JSON into a readable timeline) cleanly, with timezone conversion, a receipt-number quick-fetch shortcut, and NIEM-based event definitions
- No product to upsell — if all you want is a JSON parser, it is a perfectly good one

## Where it falls short for interview prep

- Single-purpose by design — no interview preparation content, and English only
- No ongoing support model since there is no product behind it — it is a static tool, not a maintained service

## Who should use which

- Stick with USCIS Tracker if: You only want a free, no-frills, privacy-first JSON parser and nothing else — you are comfortable manually pulling your case JSON and pasting it in.
- Use My Interview Hub if: You want the same free, local-only case parsing plus multi-language support and — most importantly — an actual plan for the interview itself.

## FAQ

### Is My Interview Hub's case tracker basically the same as uscis-tracker.github.io?

Yes, the core mechanism is the same — both open the official USCIS API URL for your receipt number, then parse the JSON you paste back in, entirely inside your browser, with nobody's server seeing your case data. My Interview Hub additionally supports 13 languages and a plain-English event-code glossary.

### Why would I use My Interview Hub instead of a free open-source tool?

If a JSON parser is genuinely all you need, uscis-tracker.github.io is a fine choice. My Interview Hub's case tracker is also free — the difference is everything around it: once you know your status, you still need to prepare for the actual interview, which is what the rest of the product is built for.
