Summary

Informational only, not legal advice. Confirm deadlines on the official notice or with a qualified professional.

USCIS is changing where employers must file Form I-907 (Request for Premium Processing) for pending I-140 petitions, effective December 15. Instead of sending these forms to service centers, employers will now file them at appropriate USCIS lockboxes. Employers should update their filing procedures to ensure premium processing requests for I-140 petitions go to the correct location.
