Researching Immigrant Ancestors: Alien Registration (AR-2) Forms (U.S. National Archives) Online

Alien Registration (AR-2) Forms were utilized from 1940 to 1944 in response to the 1940 Alien Registration Act, which required all immigrants aged 14 and up to register their noncitizen status with the federal government and be assigned an Alien Registration Number (A-Number). Participants in this session will learn who should have an AR-2, discover online search methods to determine whether records are available at the National Archives, and gain the skills to successfully place a request.
