G325A question for K-1 Visa

[cchhat01 14]

Hi All,

I am US based citizen and I recently got engaged to my fiancee in India and have decided to file the I-129F (K1 Visa).

I got a bit confused about the G325A form which asks for several residential addresses.

Firstly, she has two home addresses in the past 5 years which is easy for me to enter in the "Applicant's residence last five years. List present address first."

Then it goes on to "Applicant's last address outside the United States of more than 1 year"

This confuses me because she has never stepped foot in the US and won't be doing so before the VISA is approved, so all her addresses are outside addresses listed in the previous question.

Question1. So should I repeat her current address in India? or is it okay to say "N/A".

Question2. Since I am a US Citizen, i looked at my Naturalization certificate, and it states I have an Alien Number (A Number) from the times when I was a green card holder. Am I supposed to reference that number on my version of the G325A? I would think that now that I am a citizen, this number wouldn't apply but I am just trying to cover my basis?

Question3. Also on the G325A for myself, the question regarding overseas address for more than 1 year. I haven't lived in India since 1993. So Am i supposed to put that address in there from 1992 to 1993? sounds like an overkill considering I have been living in the USA for the last 17+ years.

Any help will be appreciated.

thanks.

1. If she hasn't set her foot in the USA..then it is okay to put N/A

2. When my husband filed my I130, etc, he put his A-number as well.. and he is a USC.

3. That, I couldn't really answer confidently.. i'm sorry i don't wanna give you an answer that is indefinite..so i just

answered the first two questions..

Ok first part you have right you put her 2 addresses in last 5 years correct.

Next question for the 1 year you out where she is living now.

On your form in the Alien number section yes you put your alien number as you are not USC by birth.

Even though you have not lived there for the past 17 years you did live there for more than one year so you put your address where you lived before you came to the USA. 92-93 yup

Since her addresses are quite long... I have decided to attach a paper with her addresses and said

"See Attachment (Address #1)" with time period listed

"See Attachment (Address #2)" with time period listed

and for the addresses outside the United States for more than 1 year

"Same as Address #1 (attached)" with everything else blank

thanks

You cannot just attach a piece a paper saying "See Attachement". You MUST follow their FORMTA INSTRUCTIONS.

IF EXTRA SPACE IS NEEDED TO COMPLETE ANY ITEM ATTACH A CONTINUATION SHEET, INDICATE THE ITEM NUMBER, AND DATE AND SIGN EACH SHEET

for example: you would write on the top right hand side:

Continuation Sheet

Date: xx/xx/xxxx

G-325A, Biographic Information

Item: Applican't residence last five years (since there is no number, type the question)

(Her complete address)

Type your name and above your name, sign it!
