Social Security Number

[Qdutchy 0]

Hi all,

first time user to the site and already a fan.

my boyfriend and i are getting married (yay) and are looking at doing the application ourselves.. On the I-129F it asks me, the alien fiancee, for my US SSN and A#.

Now I used to work in the US for about a year and a half and have a SSN, I have left since then so do I still fill out this one? And what about this A#? What is that?

Sorry if this is an old question but I searched the site and couldn't find it

Thanks!

You had a Social Security number, so enter the number where it is being requested.

The "A" number is the Alien Registration number given by USCIS. It may or may not be on some other document you received from Immigration when you were coming to the US to work. It starts with the letter "A" and is followed by 9 numbers. If you do not have that, leave it blank.

Social security numbers are with you for life. So use your number if you have it. You may or may not have an A number.

I have been wondering about this myself. Sasha had a SSN issued to her in 2005 while she was here working. When she returned in 2006 I believe she had the same number for working again. And this year when I filled in that question I wrote "see attachment". Then I added a typed page with the explanation, including her SSN. Should be sufficient, i hope. Anyway, my question is....When she finally arrives back in the States and is issued a number, will it be that same number she was issued in 2005? I cant see any reason why they would give her a new one or give me trouble for answering that question that way.

If she has her card from before, you wont even need to file for a replacement card.
