DCF - Initial Forms to submit and questions on I-130 & G-325a

[frank09 0]

Hi,

I am new to this site and to the process! I'm 32, a USC (born in the UK to a USC dad) and married for 9 years , my wife is British. We have lived in the UK for our 9 years of marriage, I lived in the US for 7 years before that. We now want to move to the States.

Having checked the London US embassy website, right now what I need to do is submit the I-130 and 2 copies of the G-325a form. On the checklist for what I need to send I am told to send different things to what the forum guide here tell me to send so if I could please go through some of my questions one at a time. I have been researchin this the past 5 or so hours and the following questions are where i get stuck!

1) On the I-130 form. Do we put England, UK , GB, or Britain as country?

2) on the I-130 form. Q13 asks about how I gained my US citizenship. I got it through my parent, what does it mean when it asks if I obtained a certificate of citizenship in my own name? Passport?

3) on the i-130 form: Q15 - Who'se employer? Mine or my wifes??

4) on the i-130 - for every box that I dont need to fill in info should i put NA?

5) for the G-325a- it asks for a file number beginiing with an A, what do i put in that box on both forms??

6) for the G-325a - just to clarify - "applicant" refers to me on the form that I fill in and my wife on her form (as opposed to her being the "applicant" on both forms)

7) for the G-325a - again on the bottom it asks for an alien registration number, for the form I would submit I dont need one, and my wofe doesnt have one. ??

8) for the DCF those are the two forms I need to submit: one I-130, 2 G-325a's (it clearly says we should send just ONE copy of each but the guide on this site says I should send 4?!), a credit card payment form, the checklist, my proof os US citizenship (just the photo page of my passport, the guide on this site says I should copy every page??) , marriage certificate (the checklist asks for the original as a copy isnt acceptable but at the same time in another place the checklist says don't send any originals!, the guide on this site says i should send a copy)

9) Nowhere at this stage of the process have we been asked to send a copy of my wife's birth certificate or her passport, or am i missing something?

So, once I know the answers to the above are we ready to get this process started? I know there is a LOAD more stuff for the next stage but I just need to get this stage sorted.

I really apologise for such a long post but I have tried researching the answers and have really struggled. Hope someone can help!

Thanks

9) on the i-130 form - i'm supposed to put my email address on the bottom of page 1, where ??? i cant see where i should put it!
