Premium Processing Resumes

Starting today, June 1, 2020 USCIS has resumed the option of premium processing for Form I-129 Petition for a Non-Immigrant Worker and Form I-140, Immigrant petition for Alien Workers. This will be done in phases over the next few weeks.  

As predicted by Path2USA when USCIS had announced suspension of all premium processing options on March 20, 2020 the expectation was that premium processing will resume in May like last year.
