N400 - USCIS Online Account no

[Emad Mo 4]

Is the USCIS ELIS account ID on the receipt that I recevied five years ago when I applied for my green card the same as USCIS online account ID? 

I'm filing my N400 and I tried to find my USCIS Elis account no in my email archive. All I can find is a username and password that does not work (User name is my email which is not accepted) I guess this is a different username which was just used for tracking my green card (ELIS tracking) I tried to retrieve my account using my email but it gives me an error that no account registered for this email. I guess I never have opened an online account (Is it possible to pay online without opening account?!)  

 

I found the attached receipt when I paid for my green card. It has a account ID but no where specifically  says "Online Account ID" is this the correct online account number or is it something different and I should say I never had an online account number?

When I applied online for citizenship in 2018, I wrote down my ELIS Account number in Part 2, #6. USCIS gave me a new acct number anyway.

So this is ELIS no? and you've provided the same number but it didn't matter anyways?

I also selected i don`t have a number system assign me a new acct number after applying online. No big deal.

Yes, the same one on the USCIS Immigrant receipt on the USCIS letterhead. The N-400 NOA immediately showed a new account number anyway.

Thanks!

I guess based on your experience reporting  ELIS no or not doesn't make a diffrence. I probably don't report it since it doesn't say "online" account no. and I don't have access to my online account with username/password that I registered five years ago.

yup, it didn't make a difference. Good luck on your application!
