Fast Track Your Travel Document

Need a travel document (Form I-131) urgently? Under certain circumstances, you might be able to expedite the processing time for an additional fee. Here's what you need to know:

When is Expedited Processing Available?

Expedited processing, also called "premium processing," is usually only available for specific travel document types within Form I-131, such as:

  • Emergency Advance Parole: Going through adjustment of status (Form I-485) or have a pending asylum application? If a serious illness or death of a family member abroad necessitates urgent travel, you can request expedited processing for your Advance Parole document.

  • Humanitarian Parole: Facing a medical emergency or another urgent humanitarian situation but don't qualify for other types of parole? You might be eligible for expedited processing of your Humanitarian Parole document.

How to Request Expedited Processing:

  • Contact USCIS: Reach out to USCIS by phone or submit a written request with your application.

  • Provide Supporting Evidence: Back up your request with documents like medical records for emergencies.

Important Considerations:

  • USCIS Discretion: USCIS has the final say on approving expedited processing requests. Not all requests are guaranteed.

  • Faster Processing, Not Guaranteed Approval: Expedited processing speeds things up but doesn't guarantee your application's overall approval.

  • Stay Updated: USCIS policies can change. Check their website or consult with an immigration attorney for the latest information on expedited processing for Form I-131.
