Physical or Mailing address for I-130/G25A

[pollycranopolis 0]

Following a members suggestion, I have used my mailing address (different from my physical address on my G25A) for Line B-2 on the I-130 (as this is the location where I physically receive mail). My question is in regard to my spouses address on the I-130. Like myself, my spouse's physical address does not accept mail, so she must use a PO Box address to receive mail through her company.

- Should I likewise replace her physical address with her PO Box mailing address on our I-130 forms? The reason I ask is in regard to further documentation she needs to receive from the NVC - If they go by her physical address, she will most likely not receive any mail they send her. Thanks!

To answer your question, a mailing address can be used unless the question specifically asks for a physical address.

Once you file the I-130, I suggest you read the wiki I linked to below for how the NVC process works. If you wait for the NVC to send you anything (if they do at all), then you will unnecessarily wait for a long time.

So mailing address (PO Box) for petitioner and beneficiary on I-130, physical addresses for both on G25A?

Is this correct?

I needed to refresh my memory on how a G-325A appeared. I removed the post containing incorrect info that I posted along with your post quoting said incorrect info.

Use mailing addresses on the I-130 unless the form specifically calls for a physical address.

Use physical addresses for the G-325A.

Thanks for the advice! Just what I wanted to know.
