Greetings,

I sent my I-130 package november 7th via USPS and USCIS received it november 9th. Yesterday ( november 14th ) we received our NOA1 including the case number via email and expecting it to be at my wife's house in 7 to days 10 as predicted by USCIS. Now, we would like to request for an expedite, do we have to wait for the hard copy or we can call them today to request it? Thank you for your usual cooperation guys.

Best Time to request an expedite - Include the expedite request with the I-130 petition packet.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

no, but the 'best time' has passed, already.

now yer into the '2nd best time' .

usually, when the NOA-1 arrives, that is 'a time' that the expedite can be requested, but you'll need to call into USCIS, get a Tier 2 ISO Human, inquire for their process.

We called USCIS 2 weeks ago and they told us to wait until we have ( NOA1 ) a case number to request an expedite. This a bit confusing

Did your wife talked to the 2nd tier operator or if she could be transferred to the Expedite Department? Because, usually after the call, the 2nd tier operator/supervisor can decide from that point on whether to submit a request for it and give you a specific reply date. Especially, if you have a written and signed letter to expedite. Good luck and God bless!

The lady that was taking to her was very nice, she was asking her question regarding the I-130 that we filed, like her name, address, if she US citizen or permanent resident, how she gained her citizenship and why she wants an expedite. Guys do u think the operator had our I-130 in front of her for real? Wasn t that a trick to determine if she really the petitioner. At the end of the call, the lady told my wife that she is going to send the request to the relevant department and she will be notified of the decision in 7 days

Well, that seems about right 7 days or November 22nd. Let me know if you still need a sample letter of expedite. By the way, what is your expedite about? Is it medical or financial one? Good luck and God bless!
