Hi,

I have sent my AOS application a couple weeks ago, and I just received my NOA1. When I filled all the forms I put a A# which was assigned to me a few years ago when I applied for my OPT (optional practical training) after graduation. It seems they assigned me a new A#. I thought A# is like SSN, once you get it, you use it forever.

Any thought?

That's not unusual. The A# is just a number that marks your file at USCIS, most people applying for visas etc don't even get one. I guess they determined that an A# for OPT is not worthy of reuse for AOS!
