Missing info from G-325A

[williams.ae 0]

Guys,

Need your help. I am an active duty service member starting the process of filing for a immigrant visa for my British-born spouse of 7 years. She was previously married for a brief time period, quickly divorced and does not recall her ex's exact birth date. She knows the month and year of his birth but isn't 100% sure on the day. What do we do? Efforts to get in contact with the ex have been fruitless so far and we don't want to sit on our thumbs for too long before getting this process started. It seems the most sensible route is to just put unknown but I could use your collective experiences/thoughts/opinons dealing with the USCIS. Thanks.

V/R,

Adam W.

She will need her divorce decree for the petition and that has the date of birth on there.

Unfortunately, his birthdate isn't on the divorce decree.

Oh, I am sorry, mine have them on there. That's actually how I got it. What about the marriage license or certificate? If she doesn't have it, I believe you can request a copy from wherever it is they were married. That should definitely have the birth date.

We discussed going down this road because she never received a copy of the marriage certificate. I am really concerned that this would take too long to request seeing as we are due to move in early 2014. We even tried to look up his birth certificate online using a paid service. That route didn't pan out any information that we didn't know already. The guy isn't much of a social media user either, so we couldn't "FaceBook" him.

I couldn't see how it could really be relevant if you have the appropriate documentation for the divorce. We just want to cover all the bases to make sure our package gets processed without any issues.

I just read this on a lawyers site...

• Form G-325A; one for each of you. The information you and your spouse supply on this form will allow the U.S. government to check your backgrounds. Most of the form is self-explanatory. If you really can’t remember or are unable to find out an exact date, enter whatever you can remember, such as the year. Alternately, you can simply say “unknown,” but if you overuse the “unknowns” USCIS may return your entire application for another try.

Thanks. That little piece of information helped us relax a little. Appreciate it!
