Just after getting married in the Philippines my wife filled out her g-325 form. However, since then a new form has been released and my question is can I just fill out a new one as the 'PREPARER" so we can avoid the time and money having her fill one out and send it to me from the Philippines? Thank you for your help

why she have to send to you from Philippines?

she can fill the form, print it, sign, scan it and send it to you by email.

I think the new forms has the same rules that the g325a and allow that kind of things.

The signature needs to be real and not a copy.

 

The two options are

1. She signs and sends you a copy

2. You sign for her (illegal but can work)

 

Unless the form stats you can sign as a preparer and they will take it those are your only two options.

I would just fill them out on the PC email them to her,she then would just print sign and mail them to me. I always got them at no longer then a week.

 

Everything takes time in this visa journey ;P

 

-If you got away with a copied signature this time you got lucky-

Printed versions of a hand-signed and scanned G-325A from the beneficiary are accepted. That has been the case for several years now. Nobody has been issued an RFE for this reason in several years.
