As of March 1, 2026, USCIS has increased the premium processing fee for several employment-based immigration filings. This fast-track option still allows for quicker decisions—typically within 15 days—but now comes at a higher cost. If you are planning to file, it's important to factor in the updated fees when planning your strategy and budget.

Premium processing continues to offer expedited service for certain forms. For an additional fee, USCIS guarantees a 15-day response—either a decision or a request for evidence. If the agency does not respond within that timeframe, the premium processing fee is refunded.
