I didnt do the same form as you because I just filed the I-130 but this is the format I used for my wife's address. I had to dig up a copy of the form I sent.

Address (Number and Street)

Okamisawa 9-78, Amori

(Town or city)

Misawa

(State/Country)

Japan

(Postal Code)

033-0021

I'm sure others can validate if that's right or not.

I hope this helps.

We filed for I-129 last year and the prefecture is not necessary. Good luck!

Hi Smitty.

I hope my advice helpes...

I was in the U.S. for 5 years as an international student before. While I was there and when I applied for student visa before, I turned in all of my forms with my home address in Japan translated as shown below:

Address

1. street number

2. street name

3. (If there is an APT#, put it here)

4. City

5. Prefecture

6. Postal Code

7. Country: Japan

I think you should use the same rule of using commas as a U.S. address.

I never had a problem with this translation( including IRS forms, visa applications(student visa) and so on). We also turned in I-129F and are expecting to hear from them in a couple of weeks.

I wish you luck!!!!
