filling up the A-numbers

[Rodel Bemus 0]

Hi everyone here..i am so confused about this A-number as it has only 9 digits in the space while my A-number or my I-94 number has 11 digits..i was wondering if I can use this 9 spaces and put the 2 remaining digits outside the box provided in the form I-485? I want to do the right thing but it is too hard for me to decide either to leave this or write the 2 digits outside the box..pls.help me.thank you so much..

What you are looking at is your i-94 admission number and not your A number. You are assigned an A number when the USCIS create your A-file.

 

You will find your A-Number on other immigration documents such as Employment Authorization Card (work permit) or an I-797, Notice of Action. If you don't have an A number then leave this section blank.

Alien number aka A-number is only 8-9 numerical digits, excluding the alphabet A in the front. If you are a K-1, the first time you're assigned an A-number would have been at the point of your I-129F's approval and the A-number is stated in the NOA2. 

 

Look at your NOA2 and you will see the A-number listed on top of your name and it reads (for example) A 123 456 789. This is your only A-number for the rest of your life
