I‑130 filed but i have found clerical mistakes what are my options?

Hi all, looking for practical advice from folks who’ve fixed small I‑130 mistakes after filing.

 

in the section where it asks Is your current mailing address the same as your physical address? i have answered yes, but me and my spouse both living abroad and the mailing address and physical address are not the same. because i have answered yes to this, my address history is starting from the US mailing address to the latest address. oldest to newest in this order. 

 

and i have left every box that doesn't apply to me empty instead of N/A. 

 

one more thing due to the character limit on i-130A form the apartment address is cropped. like in i-130 it says for example Floor 9, Apartment 43. in the i-130A it says Apt43 

 

also some of the address is cropped in the i-130 as well even though i remember that i have written the full address 

 

i have consulted a lawyer and she was advising to fill out a new i-130 form to fix the mistakes and upload it with an explanation letter in your account. 

 

what do you guys think?

If you’re paying a lawyer listen to her. You’d do it as unsolicited evidence.

 

We did something similar when I noticed an issue with my husband's address history on the I-130A (we’re still pending, but figured it doesn’t hurt being proactive.)

i did self filing, the lawyer suggested that during consultation. don't you think this will cause confusion? or should i only include the i-130 pages that i have mistakes on?
