Notice of Receipt of Request to Expedite Form I-601 Processing
for Applicant Residing Overseas
Dear NAME OF APPLICANT:
We have received your request to expedite the processing of your Application for Waiver of
Grounds of Inadmissibility (Form I-601). Most Form I-601 applicants residing outside of the
United States have a strong interest in expeditious processing, because they are claiming that their
inability to reside in the United States is causing extreme hardship to a qualifying family member.
We strive to process all cases within designated processing times. At this time, the average
processing time for Forms I-601 in this office is [insert number of months]. Expedited
processing is rarely granted. In order to receive the privilege of expedited processing, you must
establish that there are time-sensitive and compelling circumstances that necessitate your presence
in the United States prior to the average processing time.
Please be advised that we are unable to respond to each individual request for expedited
processing. You will receive notification if your request to expedite the processing of your
Form I-601 is granted. If you have not received a response within 15 business days from the date
of this letter, please presume that regrettably your request for expedited processing has been
denied.
For more information about the filing requirements for inadmissibility waivers, please visit the
USCIS website at , or [For Canadian applicants filing with the VSC, enter
appropriate information for contacting customer service. For all applicants filing with USCIS
overseas offices provide link to office website.]
Sincerely,
[Name]
Field Office Director
