If parent(s)' DOB is not aware of, don't leave it as blank. Write 'DO NOT KNOW'.

Technically, ALL the fields in ALL the forms of the USCIS have to be completed. Did I mention ALL in capital letters? Then, by default all entries must be in CAPITAL as well, unless otherwise states to write in lower case.

^^Agree.

I had no information on either of my parents, I filled all fields pertaining to parents with "UNKNOWN" and had no issues at all. As a rule no fields should be left empty on any submitted forms. Good luck!

I dont think N/A is appropriate as the father, or mother for that matter, does indeed have a birthday. USCIS also is clear not to use N/A if the answer could be none, I would assume that to be true for UNKNOWN as well. I would go with UNKNOWN.

Gee i didnt use caps for NONE on my g325a, i said (none)i hope they dont kill me for that, Yikes!

:thumbs: I agree. Good explanation of the difference beween NONE and N/A komang skye.

I know it's hard not to worry about every little thing throughout this process but IMO you will be okay with "none." :)

If this is about your inlaws : It's very common in Tunisia for the older generations to not know their birth dates. In that case you could do as other posters have suggested and write "unknown" or I know several processing through Tunisia who put their best guess down. For instance your father in law knows he was born in 1970, but doesn't know the month/date or knows he is about 52 years old, but doesn't know the exact information. That will work as well. I remember reading some where that this is a common occurrence and both ways will satisfy USCIS. If they are living in Tunisia, however, they most likely have a Tunisian identity card and that card does have a birth date on it.
