AOS Questions - Probably Stupid Ones

[EmersonsFoot 0]

Sorry in advance for these probably dumb questions.. And thanks in advance for your help

I'm filling out forms I-485, and the ones that go along with it (Biographic info, affidavit of support, etc)...

First question: The A# - what should I be taking that from? There's a number on my K-1 visa that I originally thought was it. Then I found the number on the back of my I-94 (which has an A in front of it, so I'm leaning towards that one now). But in the VJ example form, the # looks different - has dashes in it - though all of the above have 8 digits. I'm assuming it is one of the two I mentioned, but which? and do I throw dashes in there so it looks like the one int he example form? Silly nit-picky detail, but.. it's bureaucracy we're dealing with here.. don't want to take chances.

Second question: I'm assuming that I (the alien ferriner from Canada) am the one who should be filing all the AOS forms (other than affidavit of support), but I noticed at least one poster here mention they were doing the filing, and they're the US citizen. So, thought I should double check, since it really doesn't clearly specify this anywhere that I've seen.

Third question: Is the Nonimmigrant Visa Number the red 8-dig. # on my K-1? If so, that probably answers the question in my previous post about the A#.

Aaand I think I'm done. For now. Thanks again in advance!

Hello to a fellow Canadian:-)

Yes, you as the 'non-US citizen fill out the application for your "Adjustment of Status" to a permanent resident. The A number is the one that starts with A. and is A plus whatever follows. It is on the I-94. THe non-immigrant visa number would be the one on the K-1 visa, which is a non-immigrant visa.

Hope that helps.
