Hi,
My I-129 case has a notice date of 19th April, 2006 from Vermont. Since the status did not change until Sept beginning, my employer expedited the case by applying for premium processing. The expedition was done on 5th Sept, but USCIS was to receive the premium processing only on 6th Sept. But on 6th Sept morning, we saw that a RFE was generated on my case with a date of 6th Sept.
My queries are:
1) Will the request for premium processing filed on 5th Sept be rejected?
2) How long will it take for the RFE notice to reach my employer?
3) If the earlier premium processing request was rejected, can we request once again for premium processing at the time of furnishing the requested information to USCIS? If it is possible, will the decision surely be made within 15 days of furnishing the information.
4) Can cases with RFE be processed on premium at all?
5) If premium processing is not valid to RFE cases, what is the normal time duration for approval of such requests?
I request anyone with knowledge/experience on the above mentioned scenario to reply. I am sure your replies will be very helpful to many people who face a similar situation.
Regards..
