Premium processing only affects the adjudication of the USCIS petition and guarantees a response within 15 business days once the application has been received. USCIS responses are returned using regular mail which will take an additional approximately 7-10 business days for OISS to receive.
Aside from the significant additional cost, the expedited review does not necessarily result in a final decision. The government can (and often does) issue a Request for Evidence (RFE) in cases where Premium Processing has been utilized.
Expedited processing does not increase the chances of approval. If the case lacks sufficient evidence, USCIS will issue an RFE within 15 days or 45 days, meaning that despite the higher fee, the process could still be delayed.
Conclusion. While in most instances filing a case via premium processing will not increase your chance of an RFE, it is possible that a USCIS officer could use an RFE as a type of delay tactic.
The agencys backlog grew significantly due to their work stoppage during the COVID-19 pandemic. USCIS has also struggled to execute on technology plans and staffing levels. USCIS has also implemented a fee increase in 2024 to facilitate hiring more staff to improve processing times.
