USCIS Further Expands Premium Processing Starting January 30
Dear Stakeholder,
Starting Monday, January 30, you can submit a premium processing request for any new (initial) or currently pending Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers, filed for:
- E13 multinational executives or managers; and
- E21 members of professions with advanced degrees or exceptional ability seeking a national interest waiver (NIW).
To request premium processing on or after January 30, you must file the new edition of Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing Service, dated November 3, 2022. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will no longer accept previous editions of Form I-907. Please note that you must pay the Form I-907 fee separately from other filing fees; you cannot submit a single, combined fee payment for multiple forms, or the entire filing will be rejected.
Why This Matters
We continue to hear from many stakeholders about their desire for expanded premium processing options, and we consistently relay this feedback to USCIS. This expansion is the final phase in USCIS’ effort to make premium processing available for more EB-1 and EB-2 classifications.
USCIS also announced that it aims to further expand premium processing in 2023:
