Hello gurus,
need little help from you guys. Right now i am on H1b.
I am about to file my Family based I-485, I-130, I-765, I-131. on all these forms they are asking for A# ( Alien Registration Number).

I was on F1 visa before. so i have one expired EAD card which i got during my OPT in 2005. this card has a A#.
so should i put this A# on all forms( I-485,I-130,I-765,I-131) or leave it blank.???

My questiion is i am applying for H1b Extension. my previous H1b expiring on Mid April. And this new H1b will take atleast 3 months to approve. but most likely i will get notice of action (NOA) in two weeks. so do you think this notice of action form will act as my legal status and i will not be out of status

thanks
