I understand that the USCIS has temporarily suspended all premium processing during the pandemic. If I file an H1B petition now, and premium processing is reimplemented while my case is pending, can I then upgrade my case to premium?

Answer

Yes, ordinarily, one can “upgrade” a case to premium processing at any time (assuming that the case otherwise is eligible for premium processing.) (29.Apr.2020)
