Several issues regarding questions on G325a and I-129f

[SaltUponWounds 4]

Hi there!

Let me first say, thanks for your current and future help!

I am to become a US Citizen shortly, but I am preparing a K1 visa packet for my fiancee, which i cannot wait to see. I am filling out the forms and do have several questions for you.

Form G325a seems to have expired on 2/28/2015. There is no newer form on USCIS's website. Is that a problem?

On the G325a form for myself (a US citizen to be) what should i note in "CITIZENSHIP/NATIONALITY" (again after i attend the Oath ceremony) - Should i write "AMERICAN" or "US"?

On the G325a form should i provide my A number, since i will be a citizen? I thought it was only relevant if you are a PR... In general is the Alien number relevant after Citizenship?

On the bottom of G325a, i have to provide the Alien number again? This is related to the above questions, i guess.

On form I-129f Part 1, Question 3: Again, it asks me for A number?

Evidence:

Proof of Citizenship? I am planning on submitting a copy of naturalization certificate, as opposed to each page of my passport. Reason for that is i can submit i-129f packet immediately after my oath ceremony, rather than waiting 3-5 weeks for passport. Is that a problem? Is it better to send passport copy?

Is it better to send pictures, printed on a photo paper, then hand-signed and description on the back? Or, just print them on an A4 regular printer paper, tagged with whom and where the pic took place?

Thank you for your time and elaborate answers!

The OMB(Office of Management and Budget) expiration date only matters internally for the USCIS. That expiration date has nothing to do with whether or not it will be acceptable for you to use. The edition date is what matters. The accepted edition dates for the forms are listed on the site where the forms can be found and downloaded.

The G-325A states this. > http://www.uscis.gov/g-325a

Edition Date

02/07/13. A new edition of this form is coming soon. In the meantime, customers may file using the 02/07/13 edition or other previous editions.

On the G325a form for myself (a US citizen to be) what should i note in "CITIZENSHIP/NATIONALITY" (again after i attend the Oath ceremony) - Should i write "AMERICAN" or "US"?

Either works

On the G325a form should i provide my A number, since i will be a citizen? I thought it was only relevant if you are a PR... In general is the Alien number relevant after Citizenship?

To answer all of these> You can provide it or not. People have been approved either way.

Copy of the naturalization certificate is all you need.

Is it better to send pictures, printed on a photo paper, then hand-signed and description on the back? Or, just print them on an A4 regular printer paper, tagged with whom and where the pic took place?

Either, but it is easier to include several photos per regular paper and include them with the rest of your documents, as they will be the same size and fit in USCIS's folders.

Thank you for your time and elaborate answers!

Two more questions came to mind:

Do i fill out and sign my fiance's G325a form or does she? (Sorry, if it is a dumb question i just have to make sure ;-))

I know all forms have to be hand-signed AND i do know they want you to also fill out the forms (if writing info in them, as opposed to typing) with BLACK pen. Well, isnt it harder to figure out if they are hand-signed if it is black ink ? I signed my N400 with blue ink pen (just the signature) and i thought that was better proof that they are indeed hand-signed.

Thanks for your help!

She signs her own form G325a, either black or blue ink is ok.

Thank you!

In the Letter of Intent what should be USCIS address that me and my fiance have to fill out? Is it the Texas dropbox? Since we dont know where our case is going to be transferred to right? Please help. Thank you!

No address is needed on the letter of intent, just a simple statement and signature, add them to the petition.

Put the address you send the I-129F petition to, OR put no addresses at all. They are not a requirement.

Thanks a lot! I was following up on the Sample given in the K1 Guide here on VisaJourney.com. They had the address of the USCIS Service Center mentioned.
