USCIS Notice Recovery · For Existing Petitions

Your filing was delivered. USCIS hasn't moved. We work it.

When a USCIS petition stalls — no receipt notice, no I-797, no case update, or a Premium Processing clock that has run out — we open the inquiry track and run it through to a result. Audit-trailed, weekly-paced, $250 per filing.

What this is

This is an administrative recovery service for the beneficiary on a USCIS petition where the petitioner of record is already part of our service network. Because the petitioner is internal, no third-party G-28 is required and the work moves immediately on receipt of intake. Operational tools — Contact Center calls, e-Requests, lockbox inquiries, service requests, Premium Processing follow-ups, FOIA filings as designated third-party requestor — are run by our case team and reported back to you in writing.

This is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. The work is operational. If the recovery surfaces a merits issue — an RFE, a NOID, a denial requiring response, or a case needing motion practice or federal court action — that work is referred separately to immigration counsel.

Questions

Is this legal representation?
No. This is an administrative recovery service. No attorney-client relationship is created. The scope is limited to operational inquiry work — calling USCIS, submitting e-Requests, filing FOIA as a designated third-party requestor, and tracking notices. Anything that requires legal analysis or representation is referred out.
Why $250 instead of full legal pricing?
Because the petitioner of record is already part of our service network, there is no third-party G-28 step, no separate counsel engagement, and no petitioner-cooperation lag. The case team moves immediately. The price reflects the workflow efficiency.
What if the recovery uncovers a real legal problem — an RFE we missed, or a denial?
You'll be notified in writing as soon as the issue is identified. Merits work — RFE response, motion practice, appeal — is a separate engagement and is referred to immigration counsel. The $250 fee covers the recovery and the identification. It does not cover the response.
How long until I get my first update?
The first inquiry channel opens within two business days of completed intake. Updates run on a weekly written cadence. Same-day response and phone consultations are not part of this service.
Does the fee cover multiple filings on the same beneficiary?
No. The fee is per filing. A beneficiary with two open petitions — for example, an initial O-1 and a separate amendment — needs two intakes.

Aventus Visa Agents is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. This service is administrative and operational, limited to USCIS notice recovery and case tracking. No attorney-client relationship is created by use of this page, payment of the fee, or completion of the intake. For substantive legal matters — RFE response, motions, appeals, federal court action — engage independent immigration counsel. Internal correspondence: foia@dcfederallitigation.com.
