questions about filling out form I-130

I'm filling out form I-130 for my wife-to-be. I will mail the form right after we are married.

1. First it asks me who the relative I'm petitioning for is... I checked Husband/Wife

Later, in "information about your relative", it says "list husband/wife and all children of your relative". Should I list myself?

2. It asks for last address that I lived together with my wife and the dates. I'm not yet married but I'm planning to send this form as soon as we get married, so that we don't waste any time. So how can I answer their question?

1. List her husband and all children. Be accurate. Keep it simple.

2. "We have not yet lived together."

1) Yes.. you list yourself

2) Since you will send the form AFTER you get married.. the address will be the one you will be using at that moment.. where will you live with her after get married??

Using all pronouns confuses people. The OP is the US Citizen petitioning for his spouse. The section in question is for the foreigner's relatives. The foreigner's spouse, in this case is the USC petitioner.

Thanks for your help Marisol... I'm still confused about question 2. When we get married abroad, soon afterwards I will have to return to work in the US. She can't follow because of visa obviously. So we will stay together for a short time (sigh) but we won't live together. So what should I answer?

Thanks for that clarity... My mistake
