USCIS case processing times are taking longer than ever. In this video, Michael Ashoori explains 4 ways to speed up the process:
1. Include all the important documents with your case to best avoid an RFE (request for evidence).
2. Request Premium Processing (If Available)
Here is a helpful resource on how to request premium processing:
www.uscis.gov/forms/how-do-i-...
3. Make a Service Request with USCIS
To make a service request with USCIS, you first must check the current USCIS processing times by clicking this link:
egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/
Once you've confirmed that your case has been processing for longer than normal processing times, then you can make a service request with USCIS.

4. Request Expedited Processing with USCIS

[@robertbonham23]

Dude really that's great advice fill out all the documents and make sure that all the documents are there that's brilliant and also get the premium package which cost thousands of dollars more we already are paying a high fee rate anyway so if they can process are packets Faster by just throwing them extra money all that means is there a look at our packet dig it out of the pile and put it ahead of everybody else that's crap if they would work and do their job correctly and right and work diligently every day for 8 or 9 hours they could process hundreds of packets a day and we still would not have waiting times like we are now and all they're doing is trying to suck more money out of people

[@yamilkacuellar3955]

Hi, thank you so much for the video and all the information you provide. I am a Cuba citizen. I’ve been in the US for five years now and I’m ready to present my naturalization papers but I have a concern. I just got married on April this year and I wanted to change my name but unfortunately things didn’t work as I was expecting. The DMV changed my name but the social security didn’t until I change my residence but The residence cost almost $400 when I probably won’t need it anymore soon. My question is if I can request my naturalization that difference of name in the DMV and the Social Security, and what documents would I need to support the issue, thanks in advanced.

I appreciate your simplified ways of detailed explanations. I filled for my removal of conditions October 14th 2019 and did my finger print on March 17th 2020. I'm yet to get any feedback / response/ answer from USCIS. What should I do to get faster response from USCIS? My green card expired in 2017 and the extensions I got from USCIS, was problematic as I couldn't use it to renew my driver's license and can't use it for international travels. Sir, what should I do?

[@domingasantini535]

I assume you recieved a reciept payment of your application... and if do, you can use that to show at the DMV to renew your driver’s license. I said this because I did. Good luck!🙏

What we do for USCIS furlough this month?

[@handleReallyDafaq]

Thanks for the tips. What about contacting ombudsman office of USCIS? Will it help the backlogged cases?

[@worldwearytraveler7286]

Yes, it will. So will contacting your Senator or Congressional representatives' office and doing an inquiry with them. It's free (you don't need a lawyer) and will usually get you a response within 5 business days from when USCIS receives your inquiry. However, keep in mind that it's not magic. USCIS is horribly backlogged right now because of financial issues and they are considering furloughing 75% of their total workforce at the end of next month (August), so, there is probably still going to be a delay in getting a response, but still it's the fastest (free) way to get a response or to get your backlogged case moved up to the front of the pile. Ombudsman or Senator/Congressional inquiry. Either one is good to try, (or both, no law that says you can't do both). Good luck!

[@mariagonzalez4445]

I have a question. I have been fixing a brother since 2004 , He has already been accepted by NVC 10 years ago. How many more years do you have to wait if it is now 17 years from the beginning of the process. thank you for your. Thank you for you replay.

I earlier received notice of action sent by uscis.I have been trying to contact them but all the calls goes mostly to the customer service and the information they give me is not reliable.So what can I do now?

[@gatitao3014]

Sadly USCIS is not so formal. I filed a K-1 in August 2019, they approved Dec 2019, but in the processing, interview, COVID-19 2 years passed! And at tge end the embassy washed their hands of continuing the review of my petition, sending it back to USCIS...and ultimately I awaited a request for affirmation, but they never sent me anything for 5 more months, only to then send a letter saying my petition expired. I have not even gotten a reason why

[@MrCubansurfer]

1) Include all necessary documents with your case otherwise you are delaying your case 2) Premium Processing - Additional fee to rush the application process (N/A for K1 visas) 3) Service Request - You making an inquiry on your case which may speed up your process. If your case is taking longer than the estimated USCIS processing timelines 4) Expedite Request - You are requesting for USCIS to place your case to the top of the list to process it very fast (K1 and K3 N/A)
