Global Immigration Partners, a leading U.S. immigration law firm, has released an update on the current scope of USCIS Premium Processing.
The update highlights the continued exclusion of EB-5 investor petitions (Form I-526) from Premium Processing, despite its expansion to other employment-based visa categories.
EB-5 investors remain subject to standard adjudication timelines that often extend well beyond a year.
This means that EB-5 investors are still waiting for inclusion in the Premium Processing program.
