Best wishes for a speedy process!

The content available on a site dedicated to bringing folks to America should not be promoting racial discord, euro-supremacy, discrimination based on religion , exclusion of groups from immigration based on where they were born, disenfranchisement of voters rights based on how they might vote.

Thanks a lot :) I'm hoping the same, we applied for K1 last time and it took us six months to receive the NOA 2 but I saw people getting their petitions approved quickly when they petition from abroad. This time we petitioned from Pakistan and hoping for a quick approval. Fingers crossed !

Dear members,



I am new to this site after being introduced to it by a friend. I got married recently in Africa where my husband and soul mate is residing and now am back in the states in my home town of Phoenix AZ to file for his (IR-1/CR-1 Visa) paper work and visa but i don't have any idea on how and where to start from and its making me even afraid that i might be messing up everything if i go on with it.



I need guidance on where and how to begin with it all.



I went through the site and saw so many forms but i see that (IR-1/CR-1 Visa) is the one for the married people and now i want help if i am correct in choosing the (IR-1/CR-1 Visa) or i should be choosing another one?


Secondly, should my husband currently in Africa also send me any document to submit with it at USCIS and i was told he will need to sign one or two forms which are required of him before i submit the application to USCIS, how can he sign it because he is far away or did i have to send it to him to sign and email or post it back to me, email and post which one will be accepted?


What documents do i have to submit along?



I found true love in Africa and i can't go without him no more. I can feel him right inside of me because i am carrying for him. I am doing everything i could to make sure he is here before i put to bed so your help is really needed.



I kindly request help from all those who have ideas or experience the (IR-1/CR-1 Visa).



Thank you all.

Dears,

Am sorry if this is not the line i should not be posting on but you can guide me on how create a new topic without posting on others line. Am new and does not know how to post a new topic on. I have questions to ask please and i would be very grateful if you people out there can kindly take some of your time and help me out.

I need to ask some questions and also guidance on how to go by the CR-1 process. I got married are few months ago and i now want to file for my husband and i have started by printing out the forms required to begin with.

First of all, from my understanding, i have to print out two G-325A, Biographic Information forms meaning i have to fill out one and my husband in Africa too should be filling out one.

Secondly, i realized only one I-130 form is required from me the wife(Petitioner) which i should fill out and submit it with my G-325A biographic form and that of my husband's G-325A biographic form. Kindly correct me from the above if am wrong.

Now the questions i have regarding the G325A biographic forms are below. Kindly follow go through the G-325A form and help me answer them please.

1) Current husband or wife(if none, so state)

Family name (for wife, give maiden name)

From my understanding since i am the wife(petitioner) i should be filling out my husband's details and if at all it was a man filling out this form for his wife, its like you are been advice to put your wife's maiden name? Kindly tell me if am correct on the part.

Question 2) Former husbands or wives(if none, so state)

Family name (for wife, give maiden name)

I was married twice before and divorced and on the space provided for me to put my former husband's details is not enough and cannot accommodate for the two of them, so what is advisable for me to do please and i have so many similar problems ahead where my answers cannot fit in the space provided? Kindly advice on this please because every detail has to be submitted as requested so i cannot put one and leave out the other one.

3)On the part of the Applicant's residence last five years?

Both me and my husband should be filling out the G-325A form, and on this part its talking about the Applicants last five years and from my understanding am the Applicant and should be filling out this part but my husband should leave it blank or is he also an Applicant since her is also asked to fill out the G-325A form.

4) On the Applicant's last address outside the US of more than a year?

Again we both are facing this question and from my knowledge i should be leaving it out and not fill out anything because i have never stayed out of the US for more than a year.

From my knowledge my husband should leave it out too because he never lived in the US talkless of staying out for more than a year. Am i correct?

5) Applicants employment last five years

From my end here, its talking about the Applicant's which is me the wife(petitioner's) work. But from husband's end too he is seeing the same questions about the applicant's work for the past 5 years. The key word confusing me again is the (applicant) because i am seeing my self as the applicant(petitioner) but not my husband in Africa.

Does it mean that since he is also asked to fill out the G-325A form, he is also view as an applicant from that end?

Who the applicant on this part?

Should he fill out this part or leave it blank?

6)This form is submitted in connection with an application for

1-Naturalization

2- Status as permanent resident

3-other(specify)

I am filling for CR-1 visa for my husband

Which one should i choose from the above

7) Applicants signature

I will sign my own form as the applicant(petitioner) over here but does my husband too need to sign his over there? Is he seen as an applicant too?
