Which A# to use for EAD renewal?

The A# from my EAD for OPT(Optional Practical Training) was used by my lawyer to fill in my first EAD application. However, the EAD card issued has a different A# than the one issued for my OPT.

Now, it is time to renew my EAD and my question is, which number should I be using for the renewal? It seems like I should be using the A# on my latest EAD card but I'm not sure.

Any input would be really appreciated.
 
Absolutely, you must use the A# on your latest EAD, which (just to make sure) matches the A# on your I-485 receipt notice. The A# on your OPT EAD is not valid for your (C) (9) category EAD.
