I-130 question 22

[GlobeHopperMama 95]

I've searched the forum for answers to this and seem to get conflicting results, so hopefully somebody can help clear this up for me.

The NOA1 for our I-130 (being processed at CSC) arrived over a month ago. But just today, as I was looking at a copy of the form we submitted, I second-guessed myself.

On question 22, it says:

Complete the information below if your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status.

My husband is NOT in the US (we are living in his home city Monterrey, Mexico) and will not adjust status. Therefore I entered N/A and left the part about consulate abroad blank. I figured this was an all-in-one question as the instructions said "the information below", not "the information to the below, to the left".

Now I'm wondering if we made a mistake? Should I have written "Ciudad Juarez, Mexico" on the right side of that section? His permanent address on the form, and his address abroad are both written as our address here in Mexico. He clearly resides in Mexico. However, mine is listed as my permanent address in Chicago.

What would they intend to do with this when it's approved? Should I try to get this corrected? And if so, where do I call/write?

Thanks for your help!

Yes, question # 22 can be confusing. However, you should have written down the consulate in Mexico (Ciudad Juarez). Anyway, don't worry about it now. At worse case, USCIS will send an RFE for you to fill out that part. If that is the case, just follow USCIS instruction. Don't worry about it that much.
