Ask for a copy of the receipt. Just the receipt number may not work, since they may just give you another applicant’s number.

Hi,

Thanks for replying to my question.
what kind of receipt should I ask for? He is ready to give me LCA (but LCA won’t have my name on it) copy, Is that enough.

No, when the petition is filed, USCIS will give a receipt. You need to ask for a copy of that receipt. So, you need to wait till the petition is filed and once your employer receives the receipt notice, ask for it.

Hi,
Do we get the receipt when it is selected in lottery or as soon as the application is submitted?

Thanks in Advance
