Expedite Request timelines?

[Negi0622 0]

Good afternoon, I am a US citizen on July 15 2021 I submitted an I-130 application for my husband who lives abroad. On July 29 it was changed to this being actively reviewed, then on August 20th I made a request to expedite my case with USCIS for humanitarian reasons: I am a stage IV cancer patient under active chemotherapy treatment every 21 days and I have no one with me here in United States.


On August 23 I received this email:

We reviewed your case, but we need additional information and / or documents before we can make a determination on whether your request meets the expeditious processing guidelines.

That same day I sent a letter from my Dr. detailing my clinical status, I also sent pathological reports as well as the dates of my last 4 chemotherapies

Based on your experience here,do you think my case qualifies to be expedited? If so, how long will it take to get an answer? My case is in the California Service center and I have read that this center is one of the ones that takes the longest to approve 🥴

There's no guaranteed timeline, unfortunately.  In our case, we received USCIS decision on our expedite request 1 week after we sent the supporting documents.  Our request (based on financial loss) was denied.  Your request has a better chance of approval than ours.  From the expedite posts I've seen here on VJ, expedites based on the USC petitioner's dire medical condition are given the highest consideration.
