I have a question related to the G-325A Biographical Information form. My fiancée does not know her ex-husband's date of birth. However, in this form, there is a section where one has to list previous husband's or wives' date of birth. Thus, my question is: since I don't have this information (her ex-husband's date of birth and she does not want to ask him for his date of birth), what do write in the space where his date of birth should go? Do I write "do not know", "none", "unknown"? Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Maybe it is no big deal, but I am thinking she better find out somehow.

An unanswered question creates the possibility of receiving a RFE and in certain circumstances that can cost a lot of time.

This is not the type of question where you can enter none or non applicable. He obviously has a date of birth and they obviously want to know what it is.

Thanks. I think it is important too. I don't really want to delay the process more than what it actually takes with a RFE.

RFE Trick

1. Call the USCIS center that applies to you.....CSC or VSC.

2. Tell them that you want to know the status of your RFE.

By doing this you will be tricking the agent to telling you the status of your case. They will look up your case #, and will tell you wether it's still in a pile waiting to be reviewed, or if your case has been approved, or if you really do have an RFE. This trick is essential because we all know that the service centers are slow at mailing out approvals/rfe's. Sometimes even their website doesnt seem to update when your status has change. And their email notifications....same deal. This RFE trick should give you some kind of peace of mind.

Another thing you can do is call NVC (National Visa Center). You will have to skip and bypass all their prompts and reach a live operator. Give that operator your case # and voila, the operator will let lou know the status of your case. USCIS notifies NVC before they do you when you receive your NOA2.

Orestes,

Does the marriage certificate have his DOB??

lucho562:

I do not know. I posted the same question in the Spanish only forum so that she understands this.

Does anyone know if the marriage certificate has his DOB in Colombia? Is there any other way to find out without asking him? I think she does not feel comfortable asking him directly. I'd appreciate any help.

Hey Scott good luck tomorrow...i hope it works for you!!!!

[lucho562 0]

Forgot to mention, the RFE trick works the same with NVC as well. I would actually try NVC first rather than your service center. It is much easier to get to a live operator at NVC.

But Lucho, is the same reason used...do i still ask about he request for evidence...the reason i ask is because wouldn the petition be approved already?

Byron...I think Lucho means that if you call the NVC and your case # is already there it is just CSC being slow on the uptake to notify you that your case has already been approved.

[BYRON-LEIDY 0]

OK i get it now...actually VCS is kind of slow right?
