S4 Q&A: Why can’t I add premium processing to my change of status?

 Premium processing for Form I-539 is offered only for some requests, such as a change to F-1, M-1 or J-1 status, so some filings don’t qualify. What your receipt notice shows and how the case was filed decide it. Our senior consultant checks your case, and we tell your school if your start date needs to move.
