Purpose: The length of time it takes CGFNS to generate your report is influenced by the complexity of your file and your country of education. The Expedited Review Service guarantees that we will review your VisaScreen® order as soon as possible after we receive all your documents.
Eligibility: The Expedited Review Service can only be placed if you have an active VisaScreen® order and all documents required for the review are received, entered and imaged.
Note: The expedited review does not guarantee that your VisaScreen® certification will be approved. It only ensures that the order will be reviewed shortly after your documents are received, entered and imaged. Upon review of your documents, if we determine that further information is necessary, your review will not restart until the required documentation has been submitted.
How to order (online): Online VisaScreen® Expedited Review Service is limited to 20 applicants. After all necessary documentation for a review of your file has been deemed complete, you will receive an email notification that you are able to order an Expedited Review. To place this order:
• Log into your CGFNS Connect account
• Choose the option to purchase CGFNS Services
• On the service selection screen, choose Additional CGFNS Services
• On the Additional CGFNS Services menu, choose the VisaScreen® Expedited Review Service application
How to order by paper application: Unlimited spaces are open for applicants that meet one of the following requirements to apply via paper application:
• A Request for Evidence (RFE)
• An offer for employment
• A pending expiration of a visa or licensing application
• Evidence of transitioning from a student visa to an employment visa
Eligible paper application applicants may call CGFNS Customer Care for further instructions at +1(215) 222-8454 Monday through Friday 8 am to 4 pm (ET).
If all requirements have been successfully met for VisaScreen® Expedited Review, CGFNS will issue a VisaScreen® ICHP certificate sent via courier within 2-3 business days. Applicants will be notified if they are found ineligible for a VisaScreen® ICHP certificate, based on the review of their documents.
