Form I-907: Request for USCIS Premium Processing Online or by Mail
Updated: Feb 19
The purpose of Form I-907 is to request USCIS premium processing for certain applications, such as I-765, I-129, I-140, and I-539. However, not all categories under I-765 & I-539 forms are eligible for premium processing.
Please refer to the following list of forms to determine which categories qualify for premium processing. You can find the details here.
Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker,
Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers,
Certain categories (c(3)A, c(3)B, and c(3)C) of Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, and
Certain categories of Form I-539, Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status.
If you are ineligible for USCIS premium processing, you may want to explore USCIS's expedited request option, which is based on humanitarian circumstances.
