H-1B Copy

[rajesh53]

Hi,

I applied for H-1B extension and it got approved for 3 years. I asked my emploer to send the H-1B original and he said we did not get it. It has been 4 months but still my employer did not the original H-1B petition. He filed an I824 to get the duplicate copy. Is there any problem with my petition or is I824 the correct form to submit to USCIS to get the duplicate copy.

I-824 is the application for requesting a duplicate approval notice. Regarding the extension for 3 years, i am not sure how you know that. Did you receive the duplicate Notice of action? Or did you get that information from the USCIS web site.
