Which visa number should I use on the digital arrival card if I have multiple numbers?
THIM and TDAC notice

I am on a non-immigrant O visa. Immigration asks for my visa number on the new digital arrival card. What sounds like a perfectly simple question gets very puzzling when I try to figure out exactly what they want. I see one number on my original (3 month) non-immigrant visa, a different number on my retirement visa, and yet a third number on my visa extension. Which number do I use?
Answer summary
The question pertains to confusion over which visa number to use on the new digital arrival card for a non-immigrant O visa holder. The user notes they have multiple numbers from their original visa, their retirement visa, and a visa extension. Responses from the community clarify that filling in the visa number is voluntary and not mandatory, suggesting the user could leave it blank. If they choose to enter a number, the re-entry stamp number or the extension number are recommended.

Your visa number is the number on your re-entry stamp.

When in doubt the extension number is the current one to use

Only fill in the fields with a red asterisk. All others are not needed. Don’t even click in them otherwise they will become “required”.

If you want to fill in, use your extension number

Filling in the visa number is not a requirement.
It's voluntary information. There's no red* there.
