Q: Can I refile I-907 without receiving receipt notice 797 for my I-140?
I have received the receipt number over the SMS but not the physical 797 receipt.
A: I-907 can be filed without receiving the I-797 receipt notice for the I-140 as long as you have the receipt/case number
A:
You can proceed with refiling the I-907 using the receipt number you received via SMS. The receipt number is a crucial piece of information that allows USCIS to track your application. Make sure to include this number in your refiling to ensure it is correctly linked to your original I-140 petition.
However, it's important to keep an eye out for the physical Form I-797 receipt notice. This document serves as official proof of your application's receipt and can be useful for future reference or if any issues arise. If you haven't received it within the expected timeframe, consider reaching out to USCIS to confirm its status.
In the meantime, ensure that all other aspects of your refiling are accurate and complete. Double-check the forms and supporting documents to avoid any delays or complications. Staying organized and proactive will help streamline the process and improve the chances of a smooth application.
