I-129F A# Passport number? PLEASE HELP!

[rachaelk101 0]

So my fiancee and I have almost completed our I-129F packet to send off. We thought we had everything done and right, then I came across a post that said a A# is a number that is found on a non-citizen's visa? But my fiancee and I thought it was the number on our passport, is this ok or is this totally wrong? If not, should we leave both of ours blank? Thanks so much, we need to get this sent off asap.

See its very clear mentioned that u dont need to write anything in these boxes, so A# or G-28# or anything in boxes u dont have to do anything, its for any action taken by USCIS.

Go ahead n be lined up in que for approval.

BEST OF LUCK WITH UR JOURNEY.

I don't understand if you mean it is ok to send it like this or if we should do our forms all over again leaving our a#'s blank?

Has the beneficiary every been issued any type of visa to the US before or been to the US before? If so they may have an A#. If not leave it blank and the USCIS will issue an A# later on.

The A# is your Alien Registration number associated with your immigration file with the USCIS. It is NOT the passport number. Do not put the passport number in that field or it will screw things up. The A# is issued when you get an immigration visa to the US. K-1 visa's are also issued an A#. A natural born USC has no A# and leaves it blank. If you are a Naturalized USC then you have an A# and should put it in the blank. Check his old visa to see if he was issued an A# before. If you cannot find it or there is no A# then leave it blank.

Good luck,

Dave

A# is a number from your green card...

True, but it originates when the USCIS assigns your immigration case a number in their system which becomes your alien registration number. The same A# is written on the K-1 NOA2 just above the beneficiary's name and is then placed on the GC. You will notice that the OP is just filing the K-1 visa petition so they have no A# if the petitioner is a natural born USC or the beneficiary has never been to the US except on touris visas. The issue is that the beneficiary did have a visa to the US before and may have an A# issued. If so, then the OP should include that A# on the petition to speed the process along as USCIS can find the file of the previous visa easier. If no A# was assigned then the OP should put "N/A" in the space (I just realized I said leave it blank and you should never leave anything blank on these forms--if it does not apply it whould be "N/A" or "NONE").

If the beneficiary{foreign fiance(e)} has never had a US immigration case before, then they do not have one yet. If none, put none. Follow the example form: http://www.visajourney.com/examples/Form-I-129F.pdf
