USCIS has announced changes to its premium processing service, which is still faster than standard processing but no longer guarantees quick approvals. Under the new guidelines, USCIS is required to take action within the premium processing timeline, which may include issuing a Request for Evidence (RFE) instead of outright approving the case.
Key Details:
- Premium processing remains faster than standard processing.
- USCIS must take action within the premium timeline, but this can include RFEs.
- Quick approval is no longer guaranteed under the premium processing option.
- Applicants should prepare for potential delays if an RFE is issued.
These changes may lead to longer wait times for applicants who utilize premium processing, as they may now face additional requests for documentation before a final decision is made. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
