My H1B was approved, but my employer says they never received a copy of the approval notice. Can I request the USCIS send a copy to me?

Answer

The H1B employer may file a form I-824 with the USCIS to request a duplicate copy of an approval notice, but this cannot be filed by the H1B beneficiary.

However, you may file a Freedom of Information Act request with the USCIS, asking for documents related to your H1B approval. The USCIS may provide you with a copy of the approval notice and/or with related documents. (19.Jun.2024)
