Fillable G325A Address Issue

Timeline

When electronically filling in the G325A, it asks for the FULL NAME AND ADDRESS of the employer. The font size seems to be fixed on this form and so I need to spread out the name and address of the company over 2-3 separate rows of information.

The problem is that within the rows there are columns for From and To Date. When I print out the form it shows the dates in the To section with a "000000" value.

Some of the other questions in the form behave similarly in the electronic version - such as "Applicant's last address outside the US". It fills in a 000000 value on the print-out when you put "NONE" into the answer field.

I am using the latest G325A that was downloaded from the USCIS website.

If I was in the USA I would simply print out a copy of the G325a, "white-out" the 00000 values and then make a photocopy for signature purposes. But I am in India and printing, copying and "whiteing things out" is very hard to do.

Please let me know if there are any ways to remove the 0000000 values from the print-outs of the G325A - or if I am filling it out correctly.

I don't see a need to remove the values. They'll understand the use of multiple lines for an address. Alternatively, you could duplicate the dates in the multiple lines. Really, what I would do is abbreviate. City and Country is actually enough address for employment on the G325a.

If you don't have (or prefer not to use) MS Word, I unlocked the G-325A and modified the input font to Times New Roman. This change allows you to input the date in the specified format, as well as significantly more room for address and employer data.

Improved USCIS Form G-325A (Biographic Information)

Form field input font changed to allow entry of dates in the specified format and to provide more space for addresses and employment history. This is the 6/12/09 version of the form; the current version is 8/8/11, but previous versions are accepted per the USCIS forms page.

Excellent job. A company I deal with recently upgraded their PDF form I use from time to time. What I noticed was that when you start typing in a text field the font starts shrinking to fit in the space. I've never seen that before and haven't tried to see if there's a lower limit to the font size automatic adjustment. Do you know anything about that feature?

I had this problem alot over the years. I would just leave that field blank. Then I would print out the form and fill it in the old fashion way, with a pen <haha>

Blessings to you on your journey!

Thanks!

As for the shrinking text, I've seen that feature as well. I've been able to format text fields that way in simpler forms that were editable in Adobe Acrobat Professional itself. But the G-325A is a bit more complex—nested tables and such—and Acrobat would only allow me to modify it in LiveCycle Designer, a dedicated form design application. That program didn't appear to have the "shrinking text" option for text fields, but I may investigate further.
