A few questions on I-485 completion
I'm working my way through the last of our forms the I-485, and wanted to ask a question about Part 3 (Processing Information), It asks for the Nonimmigrant Visa Number. Is this the A# number? or the Control Number which appears on the face of the K1 visa?
Thanks

(Hint: the visa number and the A # are NOT the same thing......)

Re: A few questions on I-485 completion
An FAQ. You are providing a photocopy of the visa in any case, so you really can't go wrong. The question is a vestigial one going back to the days of the old "Borroughs" visas which have not been issued in nearly 15 years. The visa blank has a preprinted number. I personally use the control number. To quote the late Chick Hearn: "no harm, no foul."

I used the red number printed on the visa itself, as this is neither the A Number nor the Control Number. Hope mine isn't wrong!

this question was anwsered in the AOS from K1 wiki too, so make sure you read through it carefully, or refer back to it if you have any questions before asking on the forum!

Here is some information on filling out the forms for your AOS application:
*Most of these forms can be filled in on your computer, some may not save and so need to be printed when filled out.
*Your A# is found on your I-797
*Your Visa Number is either the red number or black Control Number found on your K1 visa inside your passport.

the non-immigrant visa number is NOT the A#, either the control number or the red number should be fine!
