Family Immigration BREAKTHROUGH 2026 – I-130 Times Cut in Half?

Описание: For years, I-130 petitions have meant long separation — 12 months, 18 months, sometimes more than two years just for approval.

Starting February 2026, USCIS is implementing major operational changes that could dramatically reduce I-130 processing times — and for certain immediate relatives of U.S. citizens, premium processing may bring decisions in just 15 business days.

In this full breakdown, we explain:

• New USCIS staffing expansion
• Digital workflow modernization
• Reduced RFEs (Requests for Evidence)
• Premium processing eligibility for spouses, parents & minor children
• Real timeline comparisons (old vs new system)
• What happens to pending cases
• Visa bulletin impact for F1, F2A, F2B, F3 & F4 categories
• When filing earlier is smarter than waiting
• Whether the $2,500 premium fee is worth it

If you’re separated from a spouse, parent, or child — or planning to file an I-130 petition — what you do next could shape your entire immigration timeline.

This is not just an update. For some families, this is a turning point.
