Hello,

As we are getting ready to send the green card application, I have one question. Does it make a big difference if we write N/A rather than None? For example, I don't have a middle name and I write N/A on all forms. Would it be better to write None or it doesn't really matter?

Thanks!

Another option if you don't have a middle name is to put dashed through that filed, like this: ----------------------

My wife doesn't have a middle name either and this is what we did on her forms.

Some people think it makes a difference, as N/A and None do have different meanings - which is true. However, I don't think anyone will deny you or bounce your AOS package back to you for incorrectly using "N/A" where "None" would have been more appropriate.
