G-325A File Number & Alien Registration Number¡ªPreviously applied

[hoby]

I am in the middle of preparing an application for a marriage visa for my wife (just married on September 27!), and I ran into two things with the G-325A that I am not sure about. On the far right of the first line, it asks for her "File Number" and provides a space with a capital A at the beginning. When I previously applied for a fiancee visa on her behalf, I put "None" in this space. However, now I'm not sure whether I should put in "None" or put in her "Applicant/Petitioner A#" from our previous fiancee visa application. Also, at the very bottom it asks for her "Alien Registration Number." Again, should I put "None," as I did previously, or should I put our "Applicant/Petitioner A#" from our previous application?

 

I appreciate anyone's advice on this matter. When I applied for the I-129F (which we cancelled for multiple reasons), I messed a few things up and ended up delaying the process by quite a few months with letters going back and forth between Vermont and Shanghai. I really want to make sure that I don't do that this time as well. By the way, I don't know if this information is necessary, but we will be applying through Direct Consular Filing, as I'm currently living in Shanghai.

based on this link... http://www.kkeane.com/general-faq.shtml

 

I would put the previous "A" number.. as it suggests is stays with a person...

 

I would also clarify this in the cover letter. State you previously filed for the same person as a I-129F fiancee petition and the "A" you put on the forms were assigned at that petition filing...

 

Since your filing a I-130 with USCIS abroad, there is an email inquiry you can make about this as well.. so maybe ask them to be sure:

Good luck with the DCF.
