Hi everyone! I’m waiting for a P-1B visa petition under Premium Processing.
● Receipt date: July 24, 2026
● Form: I-129 + I-907
● Category: P-1B
● Premium Processing: Yes
● Status: Still no response
Has anyone here had a P-1B case in Premium Processing recently? How long did it take to receive a response?
Any recent timelines would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
My understanding is that O-1A agent option requires upfront declaration of itinerary details including all employers/engagements with dates. If that's not true, please share your opinion.
So, instead of "agent" route, I want to tie my O-1A petition to one company. At the same time, I want to be able to explore multiple startup ideas without having to file new O-1A petitions each time. Can I create a parent company fully-owned by me and tie my employment to it, then use that parent company for O-1A petition and later create subsidiaries/brands to explore different ideas, still within the same field of endeavor, without filing a new petition for each subsidiary and maintaining my employment with parent company only?
Is any of my assumption or thinking wrong?
Anyone tried this yet?
Also, did you work closely with your lawyer to collect evidence for your O-1?
How did you pick between different law firms?
My O1A visa under PP was sent to VSC on June 11 and the receipt date is June 12th. Since then the status is showing same "USCIS Is currently Processing the Case". It is my second O1A this year due to employer change. The lawyers tried to call/email but didn't get any solid info. A congressional inquiry has been in place since last two weeks, no response yet.
I would appreciate people's feedback especially those whose receipt date is from June 1st to 20th at VSC.
Is it true that O1 priemium processing petitions are taking longer than expected ? Has anyone received their decision with 15-20 days ? Or is it taking longer? Are they issuing premium processing fee refunds ?
Hi, anybody from recent applicants could share their timeline? How long does it take to process the case these days?
Is premium processing truly the only way to get it faster than 12 months
