USCIS will begin offering premium processing in a staggered approach for these Form I-140 petitions:
• Beginning June 1, 2022, we will accept Form I-907 requests for E13 multinational executive and manager petitions received on or before Jan. 1, 2021.
• Beginning July 1, 2022, we will accept Form I-907 requests for E21 NIW petitions received on or before June 1, 2021, and E13 multinational executive and manager petitions received on or before March 1, 2021.
Premium processing will only be available to petitioners who already have pending E13 multinational executive and manager or E21 NIW petitions, and petitioners should follow the schedule outlined in the chart below. The date next to each month is the receipt/priority date that will be eligible to file a premium processing upgrade request. For example, if an E13 multinational executive and manager petition has a receipt date of Jan. 15, 2021, they would NOT be eligible for premium processing services as of June 1, 2022. But if the receipt date was Dec. 23, 2020, they could file an upgrade using Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing Service. USCIS will reject premium processing requests for these classifications that are filed before their start date of June 1, 2022, or July 1, 2022.
