i-130 questions

[210045803 1]

Hi I filed the I-130 and it got denied because I sent a record of solemnation which I thought was the marriage certificate. Anyways, I'm getting my application ready again and it says

"Have you ever before filed a petition for this or any other alien? If yes give name place and date of filing and result".

For place of filing do I write national benefits center or the chicago lock box which is where I originally sent it? Also for date of filing do I write the date I sent it or my priority date?

My second question is on question 21 it says "IF filing for your spouse give last address where you lived together". We still live together and in the "To" Box it will not let me write "Present". We are still living together should I just write today's date? On the earlier version of the application when I sent it last time it let me type in the word "Present". Now it will only let me type in a date.

Thanks

Are you Canadian?

Yes, the record of solemnization is not a marriage certificate. I wish you found this place before you filed. You'll need the actual marriage certificate which, if you are from Ontario, can take 6-8 weeks to obtain.

As to where to put, look at the NOA that listed the denial, where is it from? Put that

Put todays date

good luck
