USCIS Changes Filing Location for Form I-907 for Pending Form I-140

Release Date 

12/13/2023

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will begin transitioning the filing location for Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing, when filed for a pending Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers, from the service centers to appropriate USCIS lockboxes on Dec. 15.

This change is part of the efforts to increase efficiency by reducing the footprint at the service centers and reducing costs related to Service Center intake of Forms I-140 and I-907. The change in filing location also allows USCIS to centralize digitization of these forms for downstream electronic adjudication. This is the second of three phases of this transition.

This change in filing location does not apply if you are filing Form I-140 concurrently with an associated application (such as Form I-485, I-765, or Form I-131). USCIS will soon announce a filing location change for these forms, but at this time, such forms should be filed with the service centers, as listed on the Direct Filing Addresses for Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker page.

In addition, USCIS reminds filers to follow the guidance on submission of documents to USCIS to reduce processing delays. See Tips for Filing Forms by Mail.

USCIS previously announced that effective Nov. 13, 2023, the filing location for Form I-907 filed together with Form I-140 has changed from the service centers to the USCIS lockbox (phase 1). As a reminder, starting on or after Dec 13, 2023, USCIS will reject any Form I-907 filed with Form I-140 that is received at the previous service center address.

Starting Dec. 15, please use the following addresses when mailing Form I-907 to USCIS for a currently pending Form I-140. Starting on or after Jan. 14, 2024, USCIS will reject any Form I-907 filed for a pending Form I-140 that is received at the previous service center address.
