How many digits are in the A#?

[Phayamoa 0]

I'm sorry I really don't know where this post should really go but...

My spouse's A# as cited on her K1 visa goes like this:

'A# 12 345 678'

It only has eight digits. When I try to input this eight digit number into the PDF file I-485 and a lot of other forms, it automatically fixes it for you like this in a 9 digit number:

'012-345-678'

I am extremely annoyed. I don't wish the extra zero that shows up in the A# to make that big difference in another person in screwing my spouse's AOS packet over. Is it appropriate that my AOS number appears in my USCIS forms in the nine digit format.

Thanks.

Mine is 9 digits, the first 3 being 087, so I would guess that he just missed the 0 on yours. I don't know anything about the K-1 paperwork, but there should be paperwork that has the complete number - on my NOA2 for my CR-1, it is typed above my name in the Beneficiary field.

Usually it starts with "0", you can check your I-797c approval notice from your K1 to confirm that number.

It is 9 digits long beginning with a 0 and then another 8 numbers. The form is correct.

For K1 paperwork the FULL number (including the 0) can be found on your NOA2 above the beneficiaries name.
