it means they are working on your case right now… give it another 10days you will get a response Approved

I actually got the email March 1, 2022 which says it's with an officer and under active review. it's March 5 today so I guess I'll hear something soon. Thank you so much.

Hi, how did you submit the expedite request?

what was the reasons please? and what documents did you provide

Hi @Austin, Could please share with us your reason for expediting? and which documents we need? There is a letter from my son's psychiatrist that he is in a bad situation and he tried to have suicide. Also, my psychiatric 's letter proves that I have severe depression because of far from my son for years. Do you think these evidence and documents can be helpful documents for expediting?

my wife has foot ulcers, lost a toe and she's going in for more surgeries so she doesn't lose the whole foot. She's dealing with series of infections which makes it hard for her to move around on her own, she only has her mom who's 76yrs old to help her, so I sent in medical records showing all her current problems/diagnosis and treatments and also pictures of her toe and her wound which refuses to heal. The infections could cos more damage if it's not cleared from her system.

and I sent in the requested documents through an email USCIS provided.

@Alice I think you have a good reasons to be approved for an expedite. File it under Urgent/Humanitarian Reasons and you'll get an email a day or two to submit additional documents to prove your case.

Austin, I read on the uscis website they don't use email anymore. I'm not sure, but check it out just in case

@F2A, when you file expedite through Emma or through the phone, they send u an email with an email address which is only used to submit additional paperwork for expedite request. they will also let you know through email if it's accepted or not.

I guess what @F2A read is, you can't email them anymore which is true but for expedite request with USCIS, they will get back to you through email and you will also send the requested documents through a designated email which would be in the email sent to you.

I got it, thank you. good luck 🍀

Thank you so much @F2A

@Austin, Thank you so much for your kind help. Just a question, where can I file Urgent/Humanitarian? Is there any form for it? and where do I need to send it? As I read your comments to reply to others I found I need the first talk with Emma for expediting and then when I receive their email I can submit additional documents? right?

@Alice, chat Emma through USCIS website and say you wanna expedite, he/she will ask under what category, tell them urgent/humanitarian reasons and then give a short explanation afterwards. The expedite will be filed for you and then a day or two after you'd get an email asking for supporting documents

or you can just call USCIS and speak to a Tier 1 officer, tell him or her you wanna expedite under Urgent/Humanitarian Reasons and give a short explanation of your problem, he/she will file it for you.

@Alice I wish u well.

@Austin, thank you very much, man. I am going to do the process! Please pray for my son and me.

@Alice, you both r in my prayers.

@Alice, I do think you have strong evidence to qualify for expedite so waste no time and file ASAP.

Thank you very much. Yes, I do!

@Alice, you r welcome!

it says at the top your case was approved

@MY no, I-130 not approved yet.

praying

Hi, guys only for the update, I did chat with Emma and asked for expedite, she sent me a reference number and told me that I will receive an email from USCIS. After 12 days I didn't receive any email and again talked with Emma and asked for the answer. The day after I received an email that they denied my request. :( Again yesterday I talked with Emma and asked them for a new request for expediting. But the live agent only sent me the same message as the email and disconnected our conversation. I am so disappointed, I would appreciate it if anyone has another experience to help me? This is the email and messages that USCIS sent to me: "We received your request for expedited processing. However, we will not expedite processing of your case because there are no visas available for your relative's preference category. You may obtain information on visa availability at: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin.html or by calling the State Department at 202-663-1541. We hope this information is helpful to you."

@Alice, what case did you file?

Hi @Austin. #f2b for my son

I asked for expedite more then 2 weeks ago and still no answers. no email, no updates in account. asked live agent - it's still pending...

@Alice, I think that's why they say they can't expedite. if it were spousal, it probably would be different.

@Austin, I also requested for my I-130 to be expedited, they responded and asked me to send evidence and gave me only 48hrs to send it in. I requested for medical reports from the hospital where my mom is back home, and I was only sent 2 documents, 1 was the doctor stating her condition in a lame man’s understanding, and the other was just a test of her urea and creatinine. I also got pictures of her current state, my husband also wrote a letter too. Do you think that is convincing enough to them? what documents did you give them, I’m scared mine isn’t enough?

@Austin, please, I urgently need your response

@Ada, I think yours enough. for mine I only submitted medical records I printed online from the hospital portal and also picture of my wife's foot and a short note.

so I think you have more than enough evidence. the medical report and doctor's note is great evidence to proof your case.

ok, how long did it take?

I filed January 4, 2022, I was emailed the next day to send evidence, I sent the records and pictures the same day, and on January 10, 2022 I received the email saying it was accepted.

ok, I’ll send what I have now

I thought you already responded with the Evidence. don't send twice. you need to send all in one email

No, not yet. I was sure I had enough documents, so I wanted to ask before submitting to them.

go ahead and submit.

I’ll do that now, thank you
