Your case cannot be found at this time in Case Status Online

in H1B Visa

Angel Asks

Hello! I have a problem with my receipt number given by my employer. Every time I check my status online it says “Your case can not be found at this time in Case Status Online. Please check your receipt number and try again.” I emailed my employer regarding this, and she told me that it’s natural bec. some of the applications are not updated in the USCIS online. I’m wondering with her responsed, she said the company filed my application April 1, 2009 but still no update. Anyone here has the same problem with me? thanks!

USCIS Case Status Online

You are not the only person who saw the error message – Your case can not be found at this time in Case Status Online. Please check your receipt number and try again.  [ USCIS have redesigned the website and made it more informative. Those of you applying for H1B Visa 2011 will be easy to track your H1B status.

Almost everyone looking at USCIS case status online seen similar errors and its due the following reason

Not finding your Case Status Online?

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) National Benefits Center (NBC) Liaison Committee has identified that there is a problem with the interface tool for the “Case Status Online.” Not only has this problem caused much delay in the recording of new receipt numbers in the system, it has hampered the updating of status information for those cases already in the online system. The Liaison Committee stated that the issue was not limited to NBC filings, and that the problem has been recurring. The NBC Liaison Committee did not provide a time estimate of when they expected the interface to be fixed.

Hello Friends,

My H1B New Petetion was filed, by my Employer on May 13th. But still, my case status in USCIS is “Case Not Found. Check your receipt Number”. But, my employer is confirming that, the Receipt number is correect, which is sent by USCIS.

Am very much worried, for my status not getting reflected with the status, not knowing whom to contact Exactly.

Please Help.
