A: As a supporter for your fiancé's I-134 application, you can make a request for expedited processing if you have a valid reason. The fact that your fiancé's passport is expiring soon may be considered a valid reason, especially if it could cause significant hardship or delay in their travel plans.

To request expedited processing, you will need to contact the U.S. embassy or consulate where your fiancé is applying for their visa and provide documentation to support your request. The embassy or consulate will evaluate your request and determine whether expedited processing is appropriate in your case.

It's important to note that expedited processing is not guaranteed, and the decision to grant it is at the discretion of the embassy or consulate. However, if you can provide strong documentation and evidence to support your request, you may have a better chance of success.

If you have concerns about the timing of your fiancé's visa application or need more information about the expedited processing request process, it may be helpful to contact the U.S. embassy or consulate directly or to consult with an immigration attorney who can provide guidance based on your specific circumstances.
