Questions regarding "Native Language" and "Official Statement" section.

[uzair_tx 2]

I had a couple of questions regarding a couple of sections on the I-130 and was wondering if anyone can share their experiences\responses with me.

 

I am not sure what to attach for the "Native Language" section under "Other Information"

I am not sure what to attach for the "Official Statement" section under "Evidence" section"

 

Quick breakdown of my situation....I am the US citizen applying for my wife who is in PAkistan.

Thank you

That section is optional, for cases where the required primary evidence documents are not available.  If you have proof of your US citizenship, a valid marriage certificate, and previous marriage termination documents, just ignore that section.

@Chancy I take it your comments about ignoring the section applies to both the "official statement" and the "native language" sections?

I have attached my US passport and nat certificate, englsh language marriage certificate and US divorce decree.

 

Thank you again for your lightning quick response.

I don't know your wife's native language writing system, so not sure if the "Native Language" section applies.  If her native alphabet does not use Roman letters, you do need to upload a PDF file in that section.

It is not roman letter based, so do you have any suggestions as to what kind of document would be sufficient?  HEr passport?  Thank you

Not her passport.  You or your wife will need to write it yourself.  On a blank document, just type or legibly hand-write her name and address using her native language.  Then scan or convert the document into a PDF file and upload.

Only IF IF IF, the native language does not use the ABCs (Roman Alphabet)  Otherwise enter Not Applicable and move on.

Thank you @pushbrk @Chancy the native langage is URDU which is based on arabic script which is not based on the Roman Alphabet.  So I took your suggestion and uploaded the national ID card used in PAkistan which has her name and address in the native language.
