Why
Would You Need a Duplicate Approval Notice?
You may wish to ask for a duplicate notice of approval if you have found
out that your application or petition has been approved and:
กค
You need a new copy to replace
a lost copy, or
กค
You never received the
original notice of approval.
For example, if your petition to bring a relative
to live in the United States was approved (Form I-130), but you lost the
original notice, you may ask for a duplicate notice of approval. You
should plan to make a copy of the approval notice for your own records,
especially if the visa may not be issued for a long time.
If CIS records show that a notice of approval was sent to your address,
you must file a Form I-824 (Application for Action on an Approved
Application or Petition) with the appropriate fee to get a duplicate
approval notice.
You must file Form I-824 while the original application or petition is
still in effect in order to receive a duplicate approval notice.
How Do I Request a Duplicate
Notice of Approval?
You must file Form I-824 (Application for Action on an Approved
Application or Petition) at the CIS office that approved your original
application or petition. Detailed information is provided in the
instructions for Form I-824.
