U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced that approximately 500 Notices of Approval (Form I-797) issued between January 20 and January 27, 2010 contained incorrect or missing information. The deficient notices were sent to applicants who had submitted a Form I-129 (Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker to Come to U.S. to Perform Services or Labor) or a Form I-539 (Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigration Status).
The agency has started mailing revised notices and advises recipients not to attempt to use deficient notices. Recipients can contact USCIS if they believe a notice contains missing or incorrect information, or should a revised notice not be received.
