USCIS Changes Filing Location for Requests for Premium Processing for Pending Immigrant Petitions for Alien Workers

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today a change in the filing location for Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing, for currently pending Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers, as part of efforts to increase efficiency by reducing USCIS’ footprint at the service centers and reducing costs related to Service Center intake of Forms I-140 and I-907. This change in filing location also allows USCIS to centralize digitization of the forms for downstream electronic adjudication. This is being done in three phases.

Important Information
USCIS previously announced that effective Nov. 13, 2023 (phase 1), the filing location for Form I-907 filed together with Form I-140 has changed from the service centers to the USCIS lockboxes. As a reminder, starting on or after Dec. 13. 2023, USCIS will reject any Form I-907 filed with Form I-140 that is received at the previous service center address.   

For phase two, on Dec. 15, 2023, the filing location for Form I-907 requesting premium processing of a currently pending Form I-140, will change from the USCIS service centers to the USCIS Lockbox.  

This change in filing location does not apply if you are filing Form I-140 with an associated application (such as Form I-485, Form I-765, Form I-131). At this time, the lockboxes will reject any Form I-907 filed with a Form I-140 that has an associated Form I-485, Form I-131, or Form I-765. USCIS will soon announce filing location changes for these forms, but at this time, they should continue to be filed with the service centers, as listed on the Direct Filing Addresses for Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker page. 

In addition, we remind filers to follow the guidance on submission of documents to USCIS to reduce processing delays.  See Tips for Filing Forms by Mail.

NOTE: Receipt notices from the lockbox will show an IOE code for your receipt number instead of an LIN or SRC code.

Where to File
Starting Dec. 15, 2023, please use the following addresses when mailing your Form I-907 to USCIS for a currently pending Form I-140. Starting on or after January 14, 2024, USCIS will reject any Form I-907 filed for a pending Form I-140 that is received at the previous service center address.
