Hey guys,

At the bottom of the G-325A form, it asks if you the form is being sent in connection with an application for naturalization, permanent residency or other. My husband put other -I-130 (as he is already an american citizen.) Do I put "permanent residency" or "other- I-130" as well on mine?

Also, does he sign on my G-325 A where it asks for the signature, as he is the petiitoner? Or do I still sign as it is my info on the form?

Thanks!

Taylor

You will have to sign the G-325A that you filled out, as it's your information.

If memory serves me correctly, I believe I checked the 'other' box and put I-130 in the space. Sorry I can't remember for sure as I filled mine out back in January 2011. If anyone knows which is better, please advise.

I was wondering if I should put I-130 or check the box as well! I'm glad this thread came up vs making a new one. :)

Also a question to add, since it seems to work well in this thread, rather than start a new one. I have been at my current residence less than a year (almost but not quite.) On the question where it asks for the last non-usa residence, do I put my old residence? If it is my current residence how would I fill in the date since I'm still there?
