Premium Process
211 days! My application has not progressed yet. How many days do I have to wait for a status update?
Should I go through the premium process or wait a few more days? How much will PP cost? How many days will I have to wait to get the results if I take PP? If my case is approved, how many months will I have to wait to enter the United States?
Waiting for expert opinion.

Premium Processing (PP) costs $2,805 and guarantees a decision within 45 days, but it doesn’t affect your visa wait time—that's based on your priority date, which you didn’t mention. Right now, USCIS is processing cases with a Final Action Date of October 15, 2023, and your stated 211-day wait suggests a late 2024 submission, so you may still have a while to go. PP can ease the stress of waiting for approval, but it won’t speed up your overall timeline.
