Registering with the Selective Service

[weebeansy 0]

My husband just recently was approved for his green card!!! He is 25 years old (will turn 26 in 2 months). I am aware that he is required to register with the selective services. My question is this...on the application form !-485 at the very end near where you sign they make it sound as though all the information will automatically be sent by USCIS to Selective Services...It states:

"Upon USCIS acceptance of my application, I authorize USCIS to transmit to the Selective Service my name, current address, Social Security Number, date of birth and the date I filed the application for the purpose of recording my Selective Service registration as of the filing date."

So to me that sounds as though registration is automatic...should we just go ahead and register him ourselves to be safe??? Thanks, Weebeansy

I suggest to register by yourself just to make sure besides when your husband will apply for citizenship they always ask if he registered to selective service if not there will be a big chance that he will not be approved unless there is a valid reason, here is the website addy to register for selective service https://www4.sss.gov/regver/register1.asp
