Atlanta, GA asked in Immigration Law for Georgia

Q: USCI sent me wrong I797C for the EAD renewal (I-765). Is there any was to get a copy?

They sent me the biometrics letter instead of the Official Receipt notice of the EAD renewal (I-765). My employer requires the Receipt notice to corroborate the category filled is the same as the one in my EAD to grant an automatic extension of my current working permit. This information can not be obtained online. Called multiple times to USCIS, they only have records of mailing one letter, I only received one eNotification. I never received the Receipt Notice and only received the letter saying I don't need to go for biometrics. They will not re-issue it, because it is "just a receipt notice" and they text me the case number. By the moment that the receipt notice is necessary for the EAD extension it should not just be a "receipt". I went to a field office, they can see it on the screen but they will not print it for me since they were not the office who process it. Is there any other way to get this document?

A: It seems you’ve got the evidence it was filed and that it is in process. You can also go to uscis.gov and plug the receipt number into “check case status online” for further evidence. Without knowing if there is a reason why you specifically need to receipt notice, it sounds like you’ve got plenty of evidence that the I-765 was filed/received.
