How long does it take to get the H1B approval documents from USCIS?

Hi friends,

Pls help. How long does it take to get the H1B approval documents from USCIS. My petition got approved on Aug 29th. Many people would have got the approval documents now.

Mine was approved on Sep 16 2013, yet to receive the documents…

Usually, you should get the documents within two to three weeks. If you check on USCIS website the status should say something like this

On XXXX  29, 2013, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129 PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.



If you see the above status, it means that USCIS has send the documents and it is in transit. Please check with your attorney to reach out to USCIS. You can also call USCIS helpline to check on the same using the number in the status    1-800-375-5283.

Hello Kumar,
Can we call USCIS and get the tracking number of courier? Is it possible?

Please advise.
