USCIS case status · Review
Expedite Request Denied
What it means
USCIS decided not to speed up your case. The case itself is not denied; it carries on in the normal queue.
What usually happens next
Processing continues at the usual pace. You can make a new request if your circumstances change and you have new evidence.
What to do now
- Check whether you are already outside the published processing time; if so, you can submit a case inquiry.
- If the delay is causing real harm, an immigration attorney or your congressional representative may be able to help.
Questions
- Is my application denied too?
- No. Only the request to go faster was denied.
