# USCIS Receipts

The USCIS Receipts Tracking module is a powerful integration designed to provide law firms with real-time visibility into the status of immigration cases directly from the official government source.

## 1\. Firm-Wide Receipt Control Center

The **USCIS Receipts** dashboard allows administrators and attorneys to oversee the status of every case in the firm from a single screen.

-   **Total Visibility:** Access a master list including the internal Case ID, Contact (client or associated firm), Form type (e.g., I-130), and the USCIS Receipt number.
-   **Real-Time Status:** View detailed columns such as **Case Status** and **Last Status** (the latest update received from USCIS).
-   **Organization Tools:** Use the **Filter**, **Sort**, and **Group** buttons to segment receipts by status, attorney, or client.

## 2\. Individual Case Tracking

In addition to the global view, you can manage receipts specifically within each individual file.

-   **Location:** Inside any case, navigate to the **USCIS Receipts** tab in the bottom navigation menu.
-   **Manual Update:** While the system monitors changes, users can trigger an instant update by clicking the **Update status** button next to any receipt. This performs a direct query to the official USCIS API.
-   **Direct Link:** The **See in USCIS** button automatically redirects you to the official government page with the receipt number pre-loaded for further verification.

## 3\. Transparency: The Client Portal

One of the main benefits of this feature is reducing the volume of status inquiry calls and emails.

-   **Automatic Synchronization:** All status information updated in Prima.Law is automatically reflected in the **Client Portal**.
-   **Client Access:** Clients can log into their own USCIS tab to view the progress of their petition, increasing trust and peace of mind.

> **Pro Tip:** Always ensure the receipt number is entered correctly (e.g., IOE0928010839) to ensure the API connection can fetch the data successfully.
