Jim, Jaxen or others please help - amended notice

[CrouchingTiger2]

Here is my problem:

My I-140(EB2) was approved from TSC in June 2002(notice date). In the beneficiary field the A# printed is A1.

I applied for I-485 at NSC in July 02 and received the receipt notice with A# as A2.(I also got EAD, AP and completed the finger printing).

Last week my employer received a AMENDED I-140 notice from TSC with A# in the beneficiary field as A2 (same as in I-485 notice of action) and notice date as december 02. All other details are exactly the same.

My company name has not changed; it has not merged with any other company; my employer did not apply for a new I-140. From the beginning I opted for AOS and I am still going with AOS.

Does this seem strange to you? or is this normal? Is the amended notice sent because I applied I-140 at one service center and I-485 in another? Is INS trying to "sync" I-140 and I-485 by using the same A#?

I appreciate your help very much.

Thanks

Here is another one

A# on my I-140 (EA) approval is A1 from TSC
A# on my I-140 (NIW) approval is A2 from TSC

I filed my I-485 with a copy of I-140 (EA) approval to NSC, but I did not fill in A# in the I-1485 form. NSC gave me an A# on my I-485 receipt notice and it is the same as A2.

Any ideas
