Made an error on the G-325A form and need help for possible solution. Please HELP!

[James s 0]

Hello everyone.

I made an error on my wifes G-325A form. It asks to list the applicants residence for the last 5 years and I put in From: 2007 To: Present Time.

The problem with this is that she has been living at the same address since she was born and not since 2007. What I should have put was her From: her date of birth To: Present Time.

I should be getting my NOA2 email alert any day now since my brother and I filled around the same date and he just got his.

What I am concerned about is filling the next set of forms. The DS-230 form question 30 asks to list all places you have lived since the age of 16. I am afraid if I change the answer to this question and now put in that she is been living in the same address all her life that they will send me a RFE. They might ask why I made the change.

What I want to do now is fill that DS-230 and put in that she has been living at the same address for her whole life. Do you think this will be a problem for me? What can I do?

I would really appreciate it if someone can help me find a solution to this problem as I am really feeling frustrated about this.

There is a possibility it may initiate an RFE from USCIS since you did not include a full 5 years of information on the G-325A. If that happens; correct it and resubmit the required information. If you receive your NOA2 without issue, put the correct information on the DS-230 and any discrepancies can be explained at the interview if it comes up.

Thank you for the response... I need all the help I can get right now because I am worried about this.

If I do get a RFE from USCIS, do you think they will ask me why I had the wrong year listed in the first place or require proof or something of that sort?

And if the situation plays out and I receive the NOA2 and I put in the correct information now will they try to ask me for some sort of proof?

What can I tell USCIS/NVC if they ask me why I made the mistake?

I feel really bad I made this mistake and I hope it will not delay the case. Thanks to all who help.

USCIS is accustomed to getting incomplete G325a forms. If they send you an RFE, and for all future forms and correspondence, read carefully, interpret literally and answer accurately. If you do NOT feel confident, you can do so, hire professional help. If he lived there all his life, you enter the month and year of his birth as the start date. You must have pulled 2007 out of a cloud somewhere. How many other questions did you misunderstand an provide phantom information as response?

If USICIS sends you an RFE I suspect it would simply be because your dates did not cover the entire 5 years as requested. You would then simply provide them with the required information for the entire previous 5 years, no proof required as far as I know. Keep in mind any RFE will include specific instructions as to what is required so you would just follow their instructions.

As I posted earlier if you get your NOA2 without issue fill in the DS-230 with all of the required information and IMO it will not be an issue. IF it does come up your wife would just explain honestly at the interview that it was a simple mistake.

I know it is very difficult not to worry about every little thing but try to wait it out and see what happens. Keep us updated.

That was the only question I made a mistake on. I realized this only 2 days ago and that's why I am asking for help. Maybe there is a corrective action I can take.

Thanks for taking the time to respond OBX. I am a little calmer now and will just wait it out like you said. I will definitely keep everyone updated. Please wish me luck!
