Check your hearing date at the Peachtree Immigration Court
EOIR’s free Automated Case Information portal shows the date, time and court of your next hearing: enter your A-number (the 8 or 9 digits after the “A” on your Notice to Appear or hearing notice; put a 0 in front of an 8-digit number) and choose your nationality. The same information is on EOIR’s line, 1-800-898-7180, 24 hours a day, in English and Spanish.
- What the result means: a master hearing is a short calendar hearing; an individual hearing is the merits hearing. “No case found for this A-Number” can mean the Notice to Appear has not been filed with the court yet. Your written hearing notice is the official source — if the two differ, call the Peachtree Immigration Court at (404) 554-9400.
- Moved? File Form EOIR-33/IC with the court that has your case within five days (8 C.F.R. § 1003.15(d)(2)). A USCIS change of address does not update the court.
- Missed a hearing? An order of removal entered in your absence can sometimes be reopened — see our guide to in absentia orders.

About the Peachtree Immigration Court
Public sources.
The court is in Suite 2600 (26th floor) of the Peachtree Summit Federal Building at 401 West Peachtree Street, on the north edge of downtown near North Avenue — on a triangular block bounded by the Downtown Connector freeway, West Peachtree Street and Ivan Allen Jr. Boulevard.
The building connects directly to MARTA's Civic Center station (Red and Gold Lines), whose right-of-way runs through the tower's lobby; North Avenue station is also nearby. Paid parking serves the surrounding blocks.
The Peachtree Summit Federal Building is a triangular ~30-story tower completed in 1975 to a design by Atlanta architect Joe Amisano; it also houses IRS, Social Security and USCIS offices. The Immigration Court occupies Suite 2600.
Opened to relieve the older Ted Turner Drive court's caseload, this is the second downtown Atlanta immigration court, within the Eleventh Circuit.
