Hello house,

Please, I need your beautiful answers to this issue in order to arrive at a beautiful conclusion.

I realized that flight to Atlanta via Delta & other European airlines is on the high side. It is logical and cheaper to fly via any of Emirate, Turkish, Qatar or Air Maroc to a nearby state like Chicago, Houston - Texas or New York & then get another flight to Atlanta? But I'm not sure if there will be an issue if I use that idea because:

1. Since Atlanta is my final destination will I surrender my package & passport to the immigration at the first POE or I should ignore the immigration at that moment till I get to Atlanta?

2. The flight from the first POE is an international flight while from there to Atlanta will be a local flight. If I ignore the immigration at the first airport, will they accept it at the 2nd airport?

Submitting the package to the immigration at an airport other than that of the final destination will surely delay the arrival of the SSN & green card.

I need your answers & suggestions to these questions.

One love.

Ajalagos,

Your first POE is where you will surrender all documents and there is no way you can ignore the immigration officers because there will be only 2 exit gate - for citizen/permanent residence and another for Visitors.

However using another POE other than your main destination will not delay either your GC or SSN. What will always delays it in some cases is change of address.

One love.

Q. What is the USCIS number listed on the front of the card?

A. The USCIS number is the same as the alien registration number, commonly known as “A” number, but without the “A” prefix. The USCIS number or alien registration number is also listed on the back of the redesigned Green Card (i.e., A# 000-000-000).

The “A” number for an individual will not change, but it may be referred to as a “USCIS number,” “alien registration number” or “alien number” interchangeably.

When providing the “A” number to USCIS, either through answering a query or requesting a benefit, please include the prefix “A” in front of the digits.

http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/us...nnel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

......................................................................
The A-number is referred to as Alien Registration Number. Every immigrant visa has a registration number albeit without the ''A'' which stands for Alien. However, you must mention this ''A'' with the registration number (like A412XXXX....) when making an enquiry from USCIS. I called them few times because of the delay in my GC when we came in then and they told me to always add the prefix - ''A''.

Hope this helps!

cheers

Ferdiii,
Are u saying his number is 2011AF00004956? I thought his number is 49560. So I don't understand why you are worried. His number is current for October 2010.

Helo Ferdiii,
From the posting No. 4525 of this forum pg 148, the bulletin advance info, Nigeria has 10,000. This means that your guy who has AF000049XX is even the 49XXth person on the queue.

Just get ready or ask your guy to get ready.
Thanks and Goodluck.
