So, I am filing paperwork on the I-130 and the instruction mention that both my husband need to file a G-325A. I'm surprised because I've always thought that I would be the only one needing that. Can anyone confirm this please?

Confirmed.

You will need one G-325 A for yourself and one for your spouse for the I-130. Also, you will need one G-325 A for yourself in addition for the I-485.

Yes, both you and your husband need to fill out one G-325A each for I-130.

However, for I-485 only one G-325A, for you (foreign citizen), is needed.

Sooo.. In total, we will need 2 G-325A? Or can they use the same for both forms?

No, in total you will need 3 G-325 A. 2 will be filled out, dated and signed by you (attach 1 to the I-130 and attach 1 to the I-485) and 1 will be filled out, signed and dated by your husband (attach this to the I-130). They can not use the same for both forms.

Kittyfang-

You may be confused because people adjusting from a K-1 do not need a G-325A for both spouses. (They don't file an I-130)

The official USCIS instructions for the I-130 tell you that both spouses require a G-325A, therefore, they both require them.

It IS all very confusing. But I think it's more the fact that we can't make a mistake. Once it's all filed and mailed I might feel better... or have a nervous breakdown, either way, it'll be entertaining!

Both spouses need to fill out G325A, and both need to send a passport-style picture.

You also need to send an additional copy of your G325A and 2 additional pictures of yourself with I-485.

11/09/2011 NOA issue date

I've notice something about Police Clearance. However it's the first time I see anything about it. I don't think I fall into a "special class" as they mention.
