By "number on the check" - that means they will stamp a number on the back of the check as part of the cancellation/endorsement part. You can't use the check number, if that makes sense.

My bank doesn't return the checks, so I had to wait for the NOA1 to get a number. But that one comes rather quickly.

Oh, and a few people here who filed at VT never even got NOA1s. Just NOA2s! I wouldn't bank on that happening, but just a heads up so you don't panic.

good luck!

The number is on the back of the check, I don't get my checks or have online banking, so I went into the bank, told them the check number, and they print it instantly for me.

(I do have an 800 number, where I can call to see what checks cleared- I did this first before going to the bank)

Good Luck! Congrats on getting the application out!

If you don't get your NOA1 (like me) and can't get a hold of your cancelled check, you can still call USCIS customer service 30 days after you sent it to get your receipt #. I also got the # from the back of my check but because it was so badly written down, I got 2 digits wrong and was looking at the wrong receipt online for over a month. Oops! :D
