Not sure where to post, but hopefully someone can help.

My husband recieved his approval packet, now we need to make the immigration fee for his green card. But in order to make the payment I need the A-number and case number. Where exactly can I find the numbers?

And is there another packet inside the DHL envelope?

Or Are we not supposed to open the DHL envelope?

What do you mean by Approval packet? you did not fill out your timeline, so I am unsure where in the process you are. Did you already have an interview at the embassy? If so, then the DHL package you received should have your passport in it with your VISA ... there should be another package in there that YOU SHOULD NOT OPEN. It should only be opened by DHS agents when you enter the US.

The Alien number is on the Visa. No you are not to open the sealed envelope. The Passport should be visible I would think. I know ever country bundles different.

I apologize I am still getting familiar with this forum. Yes he has had his interview.

His visa was approved and has already picked up his packet so he could enter USA. I just wasnt sure if we could open the DHL envelope in order to get the A number to make the $165 immigration fee or we needed to leave everything sealed.

Thank You

You can open the actual DHL package, but do not open the other envelope inside. I think it should be clearly marked on the package to not open and it should only be opened by a customs officer in the United States.
