Premium Processing For E-3 Petitions Extended

Maggio Kattar
On February 24, 2021, USCIS announced that it will extend the option to premium process E-3 petitions. Premium processing provides for a 15-day adjudication window for eligible petitions. The current premium processing fee is $1,225.
The E-3 visa classification is reserved for Australian citizens who qualify for “specialty occupations”.
Without Premium processing, USCIS will take approximately six to eight months to adjudicate an E-3 petition.
