Greetings! I have one question about this form hopefully someone can answer it...

The last question before you sign the document, it asks:

"This form is submitted in connection with an application for:

-Naturalization

-Status as Permanent Resident

-Other (specify)"

I am petitioning for my wife to come from Canada to the U.S. (she is living in Canada whilst i do the paperwork here) and so I'm gonna assume i just select "status for permanent resident" because I am submitting this form with the "I-130 petition for alien relative" form and when i asked the USCIS agent what to select, she couldnt answer so it made me a nervous wreck lol so i feel like putting "status as permanent resident" is the correct one but just in case, i wanted to see if anyone thought or knows otherwise.But since i am sending it with the paper work titled "petition for alien relative" do i put that or do i put status as permanent resident?!?!?! HELP! lol

thank you!

Welcome to the forum.

Please review the Example Forms Section, easily accessible at the top of the forum page. In particular the G-325A example form:

Thanks for that!... where it says " Applicant's last address outside the United States of more than 1 year" does my wife put her current address because she lives in canada? and it says "from" and "to" but she is still there so does she put present or this month and year? the example shows 2010 so im a little confused...

also....both me and my wife need to fill one of these out, correct??

BIG THANK YOU!!!

Thanks for that!... where it says " Applicant's last address outside the United States of more than 1 year" does my wife put her current address because she lives in canada? Likely. and it says "from" and "to" but she is still there so does she put present or this month and year?Likely. the example shows 2010 so im a little confused... Not much has changed with that form since then.

also....both me and my wife need to fill one of these out, correct?? Yes.

BIG THANK YOU!!!

You would do well to not over-read the form, follow the (scant) instructions and fill out the form literally. I know that you want to do it correctly, but sometimes these forms can drive you crazy if you try to over-think them.

Since this thread is inquiring about spouse-visa associated processes, I will move it to the pertinent forum. You will get more focused responses to your particular visa process at that forum.

Good luck on your immigration journey.

Lol yeah its hard to not over analyze... this whole thing is so particular i drive myself crazy and make myself sick over every question... Thanks a bunch for the help! Much appreciated!!

The very nature of this process can easily cause paranoia, over-thinking, and second guessing (I was guilty of all 3).
