Hey Guys,

We are looking through the form I-130 section 22 and this is what it says...

22. Complete the information below if your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status.

If your relative is not eligible for adjustment of status, he or she will apply for a

visa abroad at the American consular post in: ___________(city) __________ (state)

--------

So my question is...does this question apply to me at all...as I am living in Canada...and my husband is a USC whose filling out the forms...I am not in US and I will not apply for AOS etc...I know this doesn't apply to us...and we should put N/A on both parts of the question ...but my darling husband wants a confirmation!...so please advise!!

Thanks!!

I filled out the second part...your relative is not eligible for adjustment of status and put the consulate where she is at since she is not in the US. Check out the example form here: http://www.visajourney.com/examples/INS-Form-I-130.pdf
