USCIS RFE Delays Despite Premium Processing

8000 people affectedSep 29, 2026

The Problem

Employers and applicants are reporting that USCIS is issuing Requests for Evidence (RFE) even for cases filed under premium processing. This creates unexpected delays and financial strain, as payroll or accounting errors are often cited as the cause for the RFE.

Solution

The primary solution is to respond to the RFE with precise documentation addressing the specific accounting or payroll discrepancies noted by USCIS. Applicants often use community forums to compare RFE timelines and share strategies for gathering the necessary evidence quickly.

My employer believes there may have been an accounting/payroll error, but USCIS has issued an RFE despite premium processing.
