Expedited requests are a useful option for individuals who need to obtain their visas quickly due to unforeseen circumstances or emergencies. The expedited processing of a visa application can reduce the waiting time significantly, although it is not guaranteed and depends on the individual case.
You can request to the USCIS expedite the processing of a benefit request (such as an application or petition) for an immigration benefit.
USCIS:
- Considers all expedited applications on a case-by-case basis;
- Additional documentation may be required to support a request.
- Has the sole authority to decide whether or not to accommodate a request.
