Both my wifes parents have drs and dra listed in front of their names on my wifes birth certificate, and also the English translated copies of that certificate.

It is a Dutch academic title (like phd, ba, ect.) according to the pre-BachelorMaster system the female form is 'doctoranda' (abbreviated dra., though this abbreviation is no longer used) and the male form is drs.

The degree was used in Indonesia which is where my wife and her family live and used there until 1990, where it was given to bachelors in social studies.

So my question is will that title have to be included on the g-325a when filling in her parents information since those titles appear on those documents?

Hi

This is my reasoning, the form asks for family name, given name and middle name not titles

If I were you, I wouldn't include them to avoid further questions of any clarification. I'm sure their passports or at least birth certificates don't have the titles.

I hope my rationalization makes sense

All the best
