G325A question about adresses

[jjsa 0]

hi everyone, im currently filling out form G 325 A, Biographic information.

it says "applicant's residence last five years. list present address first"

since 1997, i have lived in the same house in the Netherlands. However, in between I lived abroad in the U.S (to work) & Indonesia (to work).

so i listed it as followed

adress in the netherlands from november 97 - present time

adress in indonesia from feb 09 - june 09

adress in usa from aug 08 - dec 08

adress in usa from aug 05 - june 06

does this look confusing now? or do i need to put my netherlands home adress in between the other places i lived?

also, the question 'applicants last adress outside the United States of more than 1 year", do i write my Netherlands adress there again? (even though only in the summer of 2010 id have lived at my Netherlands adress again for more than 1 year? )

thanks for your help.

To me this is confusing. How do you live in 2 places at once? List them in order of where you PHYSICALLY lived? You could not physically live in Indonesia and still be living in the netherlands. I would list it as such

November 1997 - August 2005 - address in Netherlands

August 2005 - June 2006 - address in USA

June 2006 - August 2008 - address in Netherlands

August 2008 - December 2008 - address in USA

December 2008 - February 2009 - address in Netherlands

February 2009 - June 2009 - address in Indonesia

June 2009 - present - address in Netherlands.

(or however it needs to be written)

Don't confuse residence with physical presence. Although you kept your residence in the Netherlands, you were not physically present there. List them in order of physical presence. It will minimize confusition which could delay your case.

Good luck.
