More details to this question:
You recently mentioned in one of your answers that there is an address to get a copy of a visa. My sister lost her passport and her visa and she now needs to obtain a copy of her b1/b2 visa to adjust her status. Could you please tell me what is that address?

There is not address where you can get a copy of the visa that is in your passport except to contact the Embassy where she originally got her visa and see if they will be able to issue some documentation showing that she did have a valid visa stamp. Also, she would need to have a valid proof of her entry to the US, which is not the visa but the I-94. If she does not have that (it's a white card typically stapled or placed into the passport upon entry to the US), she can submit a request for a duplicate to USCIS. This can usually only be done if the entry was not too long ago and if she has secondary evidence that will help to locate it.

There are several places to go. A FOIA request to immigration will get most information and a filing of an I-102 form will help with the I-94.

You must apply for a freedom of information act request and/or file Form I-102 (www.uscis.gov).

You file an I-102 with the service center where you live and you will get a copy of the I-94 which is evidence of legal entry.

A lost I-94 is one thing and a lost passport with visa stamp is another. To request a duplicate I-94, you apply with DHS. To request a duplicate visa, you fax the consulate abroad where you obtained the visa to report it lost but you must return there in person to obtain a new stamp.
