G-325A form

[Ije 8]

My spouse has been a teacher for over five years in Northern Nigeria. Due to the terrorist attack, she had to quit her job and relocate to the south three months ago. Since then, she has been out of work. On the G-325A form on the information about employer, what should I put on the first line that is asking for current employer. Should I put it "Unemployed". Then the second line should be her last job as a teacher. Please advise.

I looked at the Timeline. Good you have one started.

For Clarification. Is the Teacher the Beneficiary?

Yes the teacher is the beneficiary. The beneficiary is my spouse.

Then if she's the beneficiary, they really don't care about her Income. Just where she's been 5 years. They only care about your income. As the USC to Support her in the US. Just fill it out truthfuly, if she was working, give the dates, if she was unemployed give the dates.

Ok thanks. Another thing I forget to mention is that she is currently in Nigeria. I am petitioning to bring her over to United States.

Let me clarify, The first line should be unemployed with the date, then the second line should be her last job as a teacher.

I changed my mind. Yes the above is correct but, you could write instead of Unemployed . YOU COULD WRITE: HOUSEWIFE. Since your married. Are there children OP? Just a question.

No, there are no children. Right now, she is unemployed while looking for a teaching position. In the marriage certification, her profession is teacher. I don't think that matters. I don't know if it is ok to put housewife.

Either way, don't matter. Its your Income that counts. Either way you could still write Housewife/unemployed.

Good luck to you. I hope other replies come to you for any clarifications.

Just write unemployed. Housewife is not a profession...

Actually housewife is a profession on American applications. Either is fine. Where is your wife now ?

Is the PC term not homemaker? Lol.

Why not put "Seeking Employment"

Be truthful and accurate and you'll be OK. Don't worry about what somebody might think about the answer. Just make it accurate. Housewife, homemaker, unemployed. It's all the same in this context. Just the facts.....
