Lost 797c receipt for I-130

[DrPearson 0]

Context: My wife filed an I-130 on my behalf online in October 2020. We received notice online then via mail that it was received. We scanned and copied the 797c that we received in the mail for the I-130. A copy of this 797c was mailed along with our I-485 package later in October. After submitting all of these forms, we put the box containing all of our extra evidence, forms, etc. away and haven't touched it since.

 

Problem: We are moving and decided to organize/consolidate all of our immigration documents. We realized we can't find the original 797c that we received as receipt of our I-130 petition. We have the 797c for my I-485 and related petitions. My wife is very stressed about this as she has been very careful about keeping everything organized and cannot think of where the form could be. How likely is it that we will need the original copy of this form at any point in time?

 

Thank you!

1. Go online. It is still there under the "documents" tab. Print it.
2. BTW, you do not need the ORIGINAL receipt for anything. A copy will do. A screenshot will suffice. All that matters is the case number. If you can see that table at the very top, you are good.

Quit worrying.

Maybe it's in your scanner?

I wish! We looked in both scanners that we have used. Thanks for the suggestion though
