Signature needed on G325a continuation page?

[NorthernGirl 0]

Hello all,

I was just about to assemble and mail out my I-130, when I noticed that, according to the I-130's general filing instructions, continuation pages (needed to complete items, such as employement history, etc., if one runs out of room) are to be signed and dated. I do indeed have a continuation page attached to my petition, but somehow I had missed this "signature needed" detail. Okay, glad I caught this before shipping everything out. But then I realized, both my husband and I have continuation pages attached to our G-325a forms, and mine is easy enough to sign, but hubby's continuation page does not have a signature, and, well, he's 12,000 miles away. He pre-signed all four copies of the G-325a, when we were together in Australia last month, but he didn't fill in the form at that time, as I had volunteered to do the job once I got back to the States.

We didn't give the forms a second look, as we were too busy looking at each other So we missed the point that all four pages were to be submitted. Oh, THAT'S WHY 4 pages printed out...I had him sign all four pages, thinking the other three were "spare" copies, silly me! Good thing I had him sign all of those "spare" copies. So it worked out, after all, though I had to fill in all four copies by hand...UGH. But the question is, does he need to sign the continuation page that's attached to the G-325a? There are no instructions for the G-325a, no mention that a continuation page should be signed and dated, but should we play by the same rules as the I-130, to be safe? Or is it really such a big deal?

Oh, all these details

Thanks everyone!

Me and my wife didn't sign our attachment pages also, but this is how we handled both the emplyoment and address questions. I had typed and put this in the first lines of 4 pages each for me and my wife:

“Form G-325A, Q: RESIDENCE LAST FIVE YEARS”, your name

“Form G-325A, Q: EMPLOYMENT LAST FIVE YEARS”, your name

Just insert his name in the other attachment pages.

Good luck and if you need more help don't hesitate to post

Hi, thanks for your reply. Yes, I have each of our names printed at the top of the continuation page(s), along with "G-325a Bio...(continued)" as a heading. Great to hear that yours went through without a hitch. I think I'll follow suit and send mine in, as is. (And not sign my continuation pages, as this will call attention to the fact that my husband didn't sign his!) After all, the official forms that the pages are attached to have our signatures. I should think that would suffice!

Thanks again for your help,

~Cheryl

Happy to help out. Make sure you have a cover letter and follow assembling the petition and G-325a's correctly.
