I-130: Should I put my University as my employer if I am on F-1 and work at school?

[twonightowls 1]

Hello !

I am so grateful for all the guides and help here on the forum. We are still in the process of filling out those forms!

I am having a problem with the following question on Form I-130:

No. 15 "Name and address of present employer"

I am a F-1 student working as a Teaching Assistant (TA) at my university, and so would I put down the University as my employer on I-130 form ? I am legally employed through the university as the TA is less than 20 hours. I am just worried that the USCIS officers may assume that I am not solely on my F-1 visa status.

Thanks for any input !!!!

Put the university as an employer. USCIS is aware that F-1 allows certain types of work. And working is not a disqualification to adjusting as an immediate relative anyway.
