Hello everyone. My wife is already here in the USA, and I was born here. We're in the process of doing this greencard paperwork for her, and it looks like we both need to fill out the G-325A form. Now I think I understand how she would fill it out, but I'm confused as to how I would fill it out.

I understand on the first half of the form for me that I'd just fill in my information, but what about the second half where it asks for "Applicants residence last 5 years", "Applicants last address outside the US", etc.

Now my question is, for those sections asking about the applicant, that means they're asking about my wife, the one who wants the greencard, and not me, the guy who's been born as a citizen, correct? So if that's the case then I suppose that section will be the same as what's on her G-325A.

Thanks in advance.

We answered truthfully for "Applicants residence for last 5 years", as for "Applicants last address outside the US", we put down N/A (because he doesn't have one). He's the USC and I am the beneficiary.

I found this site (USCIS's) very useful for small details like these. Also, VJ has guides and example forms.

Hope this helps! :)

Hello. Here is a link to a sample G-325A. http://www.visajourney.com/examples/INS-Form-G-325A.pdf

As for your question, since you are both filling out this form, you will each be the applicant on your individual forms. So on your form, you are the applicant. On her form, she is the applicant.

Maybe I was wrong but we only filled the G-325A for my husband for AOS. So far so good.

That's because you're a K1.

You can see this is in the AOS from Student etc forum so the requirements are different.

Do we need to mention the addresses even which are less than a year duration in the last 5 years (within USA)?
