This is probably a very simple/silly question, but I'm not sure how to fill this out:

 

I've been living at a certain address in CA for the last two years. I came to India to get married, so spent the first 20 days at my parents' and have now been living with my husband.

I fly back on the 23rd of this month, and intend to file my petition this week. My questions is, for the address history, do I fill these addresses in India?

If yes, should it be x July - y July at my parents' residence (I find that odd) and y July - present at my husband's?

If I don't add these addresses at all, the section where it asks you to fill out the last physical address where you lived with your spouse will conflict with my address history (assuming I only go ahead with my California address)

 

Please help :( 
Sorry if this is too silly, and thanks for your time!

You were visiting,  not residing 

YMMV

So I'd say 'never lived together'? Wouldn't they question that?

You weren't living together, just visiting. 
 

In the visa processing world it's very common for someone to have never lived with their spouse. A lot of us on here are waiting for our visas so that we can live with our spouses for the first time (like me :) ). You never living with your spouse is not suspicious to them.

No. Most international couples have never lived together. You've had visits and that's all you need in regards to being together in person. Living together previously isn't required and for many, isn't even possible before receiving the CR1/IR1 visa.

Our CR1 Journey:

 

USCIS Stage:

  • Feb 14 2019: NOA1 (NSC)
  • July 31 2019: I129f NOA1
  • Sep 19 2019: I129f NOA2 (Denied - 50 days from NOA1)
  • Sep 19 2019: I130 NOA2 (Approved - 217 days from NOA1)

 

NVC Stage:

  • Sep 27 2019: Sent to Department of State
  • Oct 31 2019: Case number received (34 days since sent)
  • Nov 1 2019: IV & AOS fees received & paid
  • Nov 14 2019: IV & AOS submitted
  • Dec 18 2019: All docs accepted, but one additional doc requested (5 weeks from submission)
  • Dec 18 2019: Requested doc submitted
  • Feb 19 2020: Documentarily Qualified (9 weeks from 2nd submission, 14 weeks from first submission)

 

Interview Stage:

  • Mar 11 2020: Interview letter received
  • Apr 1 2020: Interview date
  • Mar 17 2020: Interview cancelled due to COVID-19
  • August 3 2020: Rescheduled letter received, new appointment August 25 2020
  • August 25 2020: Visa approved at interview! (558 days from NOA1)
  • September 10 2020: Embassy received passport in mail
  • September 15 2020: Passport with visa in hand

Thank you so much for clearing this out for me! We can't wait to live together :D

Hi, me (beneficiary) and my husband (petitioner) are in a similar situation, except the last time we saw each other was when I visited him in the US for 2 months early this year.

I'm wondering how did your petition went if you put 'Never lived together'? I'd really appreciate it :)

Hey! I put 'never lived together' and our petition was approved just fine :)

We were also DQ'd in May by the NVC, so all good on that end. 

Good luck!
