USCIS Reward Processing Service allows applicants to pay an additional application fee to expedite the processing of certain forms, typically within 15 days.
USCIS Increases Fee for Form I-907 "Request for a premium processing service " from $ 1 to $ 440 for all applications except those from applicants filing Form I-2 "Petition for a nonimmigrant worker" requesting H-2B or R-1 nonimmigrant status. The premium review fee for applicants filing Form I-129 increases from $ 1 to $ 440.
On the subject: What immigration forms can you fill out online and how to do it
Any Form I-907 sent on or after October 19 must include the new fee amount. If USCIS receives a Form I-907 postmarked on or after October 19 with an incorrect fee, it will return it and refund the filing fee. For documents sent by commercial courier (such as UPS, FedEx and DHL), the postmark date is the date shown on the courier receipt.
The new law also gives USCIS the opportunity to expand premium service processing to additional forms and requests for benefits, but USCIS has not yet done so. Any extension of premium processing to other forms will be subject to the law.
