[mark-kh 8]

Hello I just got an email that say my expedite request was approved, when should I expect my I-130 to be approved ?

 

Type of service requested:
 -- Expedite


The status of this service request is:

Recently, you or your representative contacted USCIS concerning your Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, to request expedited processing of your case. Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved.

The Potomac Service Center approved your request for expedite processing. If we later decide that a scheduled interview is necessary and/or additional information is required, you will be notified by mail accordingly.

 

thanks.

Doesn't mean anything. Don't gold your hopes up.

It all depends on how lucky you are to be honest. I have heard different answers from different people. I applied for an expedite in October 2022 and got the response Feb 2, 2023. It was granted... and when I researched online some people with expedite didn't really get their case looked at right away. So I wasn't really expecting to hear anything soon. HOWEVER, in my case, I received a decision the day after. So just check on your case from time to time. Good Luck!

How is that ?? My spouse lives out the united states and I expedite reques for urgent humanitarian reasons

 

it's been two month already since I apply

A considerable amount of people get expedites, but it doesn't mean you're gonna jump the queue. Local embassy is key to making that determination. 

 

What's the humanitarian reason you applied under?

I don't think it's at the NVC/Embassy stage.  The expedite approval is from USCIS, so I assume it is an expedite for petition approval.

 

OP:  Expedite does not mean you will get an immediate adjudication of the petition...it will move faster, but might still take a couple of months.  Once the petition is approved, you will need to submit a second expedite request to NVC to ask to expedite the visa portion of the process.

How do you expedite the I-130? Can you expedite all the forms?
