The nonimmigrant visa number seems to be a very confusing issue for everyone filling out form I-485. If you search the internet, one source will say to use the visa control number while another will say to use the red number in the lower right hand corner of the visa. To ease your mind, a couple of websites maintained by immigration lawyers say that it doesn't matter which number you use since you will be including a photocopy of your passport and visa with the application. Even the lawyers seemed to disagree upon which number was the actual non-immigrant visa number. However, they had success using either number. On my wife's I-485, we are going to use the red number in the lower right hand corner. We are doing this based upon our four hours of research of many different web sites / forums. Here is a link showing information that an immigration lawyer collects. This site finalized my decision to use the red number as the nonimmigrant visa number: http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:GbX7bNSsuGEJ:www.immigrate2usa.com/i-485.cfm+non-immigrant+visa+number+I-485&hl=en Just copy and paste the above web address to your web browser to view it. Hope this helps!

Visa control number is used to track the visas. Number in red color is another visa number. It doesn't matter which number you use. USCIS seems to accept both number.

Hi! I am currently filling out form I-485 Part 1: "Information about you" and they are asking for the I-94 number as well as for the current USCIS status; at the same time they are asking when it expires. It is not clear if they want the expiration date of the I-94 or the status.

If you have a plastic card with your picture which says b1 VISA on top, there is a 7 digit number on the lower left side. That is the nonimmigrant visa number.
