I am currently filing out the i-130 to sponsor my wife, i am currently in the UK with her and have been for 15 months. 

On the online form, it states 'mailing address' which is my mom's house in the states.

it then asks if you 'live' at your mailing address, which will b the case when we return. so not sure if i need to answer yes to satisfy the domicile element?

Then it asks for your addresses from 5 years ago, would i include my wifes address in the UK?

I will be staying here until her visa is approved, so not sure whether to add it, as it wants a end date from me?!

 

please help, i want to get it right!

You answer “no” to the question whether you live at the mailing address. The I-130 has nothing to do with domicile, it’s just the petition. Domicile comes into play later on (although you should never say you live somewhere that you don’t - if they want to know where you will be living in the future they will ask that question). 

 

For previous addresses you write the places where you have slept each night (apart from hotels on vacations) for the past 5 years.  

Timeline in brief:

Married: September 27, 2014

I-130 filed: February 5, 2016

NOA1: February 8, 2016 Nebraska

NOA2: July 21, 2016

Interview: December 6, 2016 London

POE: December 19, 2016 Las Vegas

N-400 filed: September 30, 2019

Interview: March 22, 2021 Seattle

Oath: March 22, 2021 COVID-style same-day oath

 

Now a US citizen!

Correct answer is no, you do not live at that mailing address.  Your current address is your overseas address.
 

We used our overseas address for both FYI - no end date, started on arrival, entered PRESENT for end date
