I'm planning to have my wife's green card sent to my PO Box. I know having it sent to the PO Box is fine, however, I was wondering if it was necessary to include my name along with the PO Box address or put "in care of" in question #11 because I obviously do not live at the Post Office. I am putting "none" in question #11, my number will be in question #10.

Question #44 regarding "were you assisted in completing this form?"

Here is how it will work, my wife provides me with all relevant info and I type it in and print it. She signs the form (and writes in hand the areas of the form that are not fillable). In the literal sense, I assisted her in completing the form, however, I have searched old threads on VJ and have seen answers go both ways on how to fill in this question that there isn't a consensus if this question is to be interpreted literally or figuratively.

Thanks in advance for replies.

re: po box - get back to yer post office when they are open, have new name card put in yer box, tell the shift supervisor about the additional name. IMO, removes much silliness for delivery. Bring some brownies, as well (this way they remember you)

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

I put my name in as the person who helped my husband complete the form. Didn't have any problems.
