It does and, in my opinion, it is. When I received the RFE, there was no information. Just "send us a properly filled and signed I-693". I figured it was a missing signature, but just to be on the safe side, I called USCIS. I spoke to a tier 2 person and they assured me that I would receive a letter, in two weeks, explaning in details what the issue was. The letter I received was a note saying that I had requested Expedite Service. I called again and was told to simply ignore that notice since it was obviously an error.

I am not saying the false expedite request is what is causing my case to be going so fast, but it could be a reason. The other reason could be that our local USCIS office is not very busy.
