Hello All,

I was wondering what I need to put for the five years residence section.

I have always maintained a US address and actively stay there or returned to this address, but I also have studied overseas and gone overseas for business where I spent many months at a time overseas.

Is there such a way to explain concurrent addresses domestically and overseas or is it the address I consider my residence the address I put down?

Regards

J

And just so you know this form is not about the requirements to sponsor someone this is for the background check. They want to know where you have lived for the last 5 years to help conduct the background check. If you lived out of the country then you will need to list that too. I ask if you are a USC because if not then there could be other issues as to if you can even sponsor someone because to maintain your LPR status you need to live in the US for so much time and if you are out of the country for too long you can loose your LPR status.

I think LPR is permanent residents, not citizens. I thought only citizens could apply for K1?

You can travel for years and never just lose your citizenship.

Yes, only a USC can submit an I-129F petition. That post above is confusing to me as well.

If you were out of the country on trips or for business, but did not actually reside in another country, then just use your permanent US residential address.

When you list the addresses, such as when you were in school, then don't overlap them. List your US address, then the address from being in school(since you resided there while in school), then list again the US address til present, if they all happened in the last 5 years.
