Keeping track of fees paid during the L-1 visa process helps you monitor your case and resolve any discrepancies. There are several ways to retrieve that history, from the simplest to the most formal.

The starting point is usually your USCIS online account, if you created one during the process. There you can view receipts, notices, and case updates. Payments made through the official website are recorded in your profile.

  • Check receipts and confirmations received by email.
  • Review bank statements or credit card statements used for payment.
  • Keep any official notices associated with your case.

If you still cannot locate everything, you can submit a formal request for access to your case records through a FOIA request (Freedom of Information Act) to USCIS. This type of request can take time to be answered, so plan ahead and, if in doubt, seek specialized guidance.
