If you previously filed a paper Form I-765 and you wish to file Form I-907 online to request premium processing, please reference the USCIS Account Access Notice you received for the Online Access Code and details on how to link your paper-filed cases to your online account. If you do not link your paper-filed Form I-765, you will not be able to file your Form I-907 online and will need file a paper Form I-907 with the Chicago lockbox.
Due to limitations with the online Form I-907, representatives that previously filed a Form G-28 will need to file a new Form G-28 when requesting premium processing. Representatives that prefer not to file Form G-28 online must file their premium processing request and Form G-28 with the Chicago lockbox.

These fees are in addition to all other filing fees required by the application or petition you are submitting.
You may pay the fee with a money order, personal check, cashier’s check or pay by credit card using Form G-1450, Authorization for Credit Card Transactions. If you pay by check, you must make your check payable to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
When you send a payment, you agree to pay for a government service. Filing and biometric service fees are final and non-refundable, regardless of any action we take on your application, petition, or request, or if you withdraw your request. Use our Fee Calculator to help determine your fee.
Pay each filing fee separately. We are transitioning to electronically processing immigration benefit requests, which requires us to use multiple systems to process your package. Because of this, you must pay each filing fee separately for any form you submit. We may reject your entire package if you submit a single, combined payment for multiple forms.
