Can I check status with INS ?

[vij123]

I applied for I-485, Advance Parole and EAD at the same time. I want to check with INS to see if they have received the mail. Is there any such telephone number or email ?

Thanks

Find the number for the service center from below and call them during office hours. Use your A#(from I140 approval) as your key.
TSC 214 381 1423
nsc 402 323 7830
csc 949 831 8427
vsc 802 527 4913

But I replied as N/A for a# in I-140 approval.

I hope you got your A# now...

I am sorry. I meant I replied with N/a while filing I-485. But along with my I-485 application I enclosed a copy of my I-140 approval. My I-140 approval did not have A#. What exactly is A# ? When is it allotted and where can I find it ?

Appreciate very much all your replies.

Thanks

A# is the immigrant visa number allotted by INS. From your other post I thought that you have received your 485 receipt and that docuemnt will definitely have the Alien number or A#.
You can still try with your SSN, if you have not received your receipt notice(485)
