EXPANSION OF PREMIUM PROCESSING ANNOUNCED

Premium processing provides expedited processing for Form I-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker, and Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker. Specifically, we guarantee processing within 15 calendar days to those who choose to use this service, or we will refund the premium processing service fee and will continue with expedited processing. The 15 calendar day period will begin when we properly receive the current version of Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing Service, at the correct filing address noted on the form. We will issue an approval notice, denial notice, notice of intent to deny, or request for evidence, or we will open an investigation for fraud or misrepresentation within the 15 calendar day period. If the petition requires the submission of additional evidence or a response to a notice of intent to deny, a new 15 calendar day period will begin when we receive a complete response to the request for evidence or notice of intent to deny.
