As you know, we are about to send off I-129F as part of our K3. :dance: I am just wondering...are the A-Number and the Receipt Number (as listed on our NOA1) two different things? That sounds like a dumb question, but you know how paranoia sets in!

I just want to make sure...should I still write "NONE" in the box for A-Number on the I-129F? Or should I insert the Receipt Number there? I have typed the Receipt Number for our I-130 on the heading of our I-129F cover letter, so at least it's there, but please tell me what to write in the A-Number/File Number box on the form.

Thanks!

They are not the same. A receipt number is assigned to a particular petition or application. The alien registration number is assigned to an alien applicant.

You have an alien number as soon as you received the I-130 NOA1. If you don't know the alien number just write "unknown".
