Is there a USCIS phone number to check my case status?

Yes. USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) maintains channels to help you follow the progress of your case, including phone support and online status-check tools. This is a useful resource while your petition, including an EB-1 petition, is under review.

For most inquiries, you will need your case receipt number on hand. Depending on the nature of your question, the representative may request additional information to verify your identity before releasing case details.

Because phone numbers, hours, and contact options change over time, avoid relying on contact information shared by third parties. The safe approach is:

• look up the phone number and official channels directly on the USCIS website;
• use the online status-check tool when you only need to verify your case progress;
• have your receipt number ready to speed up the interaction.

If you are unsure which channel to use, always confirm through the official USCIS source or with a trusted immigration specialist.
