It depends on which country you were born in. When you register on this website, you will be asked to enter your country of birth. We can then give you a better idea of the likely approval date range of your I-526.

Right now, we are receiving approvals on I-526 filings from late 2017 and early 2018. Hopefully IPO's "Visa Availability Approach" will speed up the adjudication of your case.
