Brown envelope at POE -K3

My husband entered last Saturday on a K3 visa. The guy at the POE didn't know what to do or how to process the K3 visa. He looked at everything in the brown envelope, then gave it all back to my husband. He gave him an I-94 with an A# written on the back. My question is:

1. Was he supposed to keep everything in the brown envelope for some sort of processing and
2. Is this A# the Alien number asked for on multiple forms?

thanks.

Hey,

I'm not sure about q 1...I came in on a K-1 and they kept my brown envelope, I don't know, it may well be different for the K-3. q 2 - yes, that's the one.

Thanks Harry. I just called the INS hotline and they said we should take the brown envelope to our local INS office for them to "file". Whatever that means. Any lawyers out there know if this is true? Thanks.
