Hello,

I filed for I-129F (Petition for Alien Spouse) in Sep 2011 and received a text/e-mail message that it was received on Sep 29th. I did not receive the receipt notice (Form 797) so I called USCIS and they informed me that it was mailed on Oct 4th. I told them that I did not receive it yet. They said that I do not really need that form since I already have the application receipt number received via e-mail. They refused to send another duplicate receipt notice.

My question: Will this create an issue later after the visa approval? Do I need to send a copy of form 797 to my spouse? Please let me know.

Thanks.

If you have your case number you don't really use the first 797 that they send. The second 797 (approval one) that they send is vital to save and keep for your Adjustment of Status (after you get married in the US).

Now, to my personal opinion, even if you don't need it but want it, they should send it again; it's not like you lost it.
