USCIS has enabled certain immigration petitions to be reviewed in an expedited manner. By paying an additional $1,225 (as of January 2011) to USCIS along with the relevant petition, a petitioner may request the petition be “Premium Processed” so that the petition is reviewed by USCIS within 15 calendar days from the day the petition was received.
