Re: American Fidelity Variable Annuity Fund A
(File Nos. 2-30771, 811-1764)
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of American Fidelity Assurance Company (the "Company")
and American Fidelity Variable Annuity Fund A ("Fund A"), we are filing a
certification pursuant to paragraph (j) of Rule 497 under the Securities
Act of 1933. In this regard, we certify that the form of Prospectus and
Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") for certain variable annuity
contracts offered by the Company through Fund A otherwise required to be
filed under paragraph (c) of Rule 497 does not differ from the form of
Prospectus and SAI contained in the Form N-3 registration statement for
Fund A, which was filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange
Commission via EDGARLINK on April 24, 1998 and became effective on April
28, 1998.
Sincerely,
JOHN W. REX
John W. Rex
Chairman
