Does this mean the Expedite Request was approved?

Hello!

 

We have contacted USCIS by phone to request an expedite request. (Humanitarian reasons)

The day after they sent us an email asking for evidence.

The next day we received the following email:

 

We have received the requested evidence.  The documentation submitted meets the requirements for expedited processing of your application. You should receive a decision or notice of further action within 45 days.

 

From our understanding it means the expedite request was approved, however, the last part of the email confuses us. "You should receive  a decision or notice...", Does that mean a decision for our i130 for being approved / RFE, etc or a decision if the I130 expedite request is Approved ?

 

 

Has anyone received that reply after sending the evidence and can assure its approved?

Thanks in advance!

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

it means your expedited request was approved and does not mean your petition is approved. It means they will adjudicate in 45 days

Not an approval yet, I did an expedite also, different reason, but same process, after you send in the required evidence you should get a response pretty quickly, 2 days after I faxed everything to the number they sent, I got a notification card was being produced and had everything in the mail a week later. But now with all the offices closed, I doubt things are going to happen that fast.

Here on a K1? Need married and a Certificate in hand within a few hours? I'm here to help. Come to Vegas and I'll marry you Vegas style!!   Visa Journey members are always FREE for my services. I know the costs involved in this whole game of immigration, and if I can save you some money I will!

Thank you ALL for your replies!

 

@Loren YI know that this is not mean an approval of the I130 form for the CR1 Visa. However, according to you, the email I received means the Expedite Request (not the i130 request) was approved and not denied? Or should I wait and expect for another email stating if the request for expedite is approved?

 

 

thanks again to all!

Not sure any Consulate is scheduling interview currently.

We requested because of financial hardship, as my wife needed an emergency appendectomy and we ended up with a 60,000 dollar hospital bill that initially the insurance company was denying to pay, so we sent in proof of that, and the whole process took about a month from the phone call to card in the mailbox.
