Oh hi there,

This thread is mostly for peace of mind. As I'm finding it hard to send this form off to my Fiance until it's reached perfection. Yes I've read the example sheets, and yes I've searched the forums for answers. As I said, this is more-so for peace of mind that I'm doing things correctly. If I could get responses from more than 1 person as well, that would be great :).

So, for the below situations-- keep in mind that I am the beneficiary, and this is the G-325A form that's filed alongside the I-129F for our K1 Fiance package.

Begin.

1. Applicant's residence for past 5 years.

Would I include a college dorm address that I stayed at for 4 semesters (I came back home for the summer both times) even though it wasn't my "permanent address". All of my mail still went to my parent's house. And if I do have to put my college dorm down, do I also state that I was home for the summer?

2. Applicant's last address outside of the U.S for more than 5 years.

I, the beneficiary, have always resided outside the U.S . Do I just repeat my the same address in the question above? (If I was there longer than a year)

3. Applicant's employment for last 5 years.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that I have to state employment dates, as well as unemployment dates? 5 years ago I was fresh out of high-school, didn't know what I wanted to do with my life, and had a new job every 3 months. I know for a fact I'll need an external sheet of some sort. Would it be fine to say "See attached page" in the first blank for that question? And if I were to include an external page, what's the best way to label it correctly?

4. Last occupation abroad if not shown above.

Would I also say "See attached page", or would I just write down my most recent employment even though it's on an external page?

5. This form is submitted in connection for an application for : ?

I've seen some posts say to check "Other" and write "Form I-129F" in the space beside it. And I've seen other posts that say "check status as permanent resident". Which is correct?

6. Signature, as well as the box under the word "Applicant" at the VERY bottom of the page.

From my understanding, I fill out both on my form-- and my fiance fills out both on her own G325A form. Is this correct?

7. Where to put None, and where to put N/A.

Area's where I put "None": File Number, U.S Social Security Number, Current Husband/Wife, Former Husbands/Wife, Alien Registration Number.

Area's where I put "N/A" : If your native alphabet is in other Roman letters.

Correct?

Thanks for the read! :)

Question 1 & 2 - I would just put your parent's address - that was your permanent residence - dorms are just temporary. For the second part - yes your parent's address then.

For the employment part - I would just attach a page referencing the question number on the application - make sure to put your name on there, the application number and question number

Yes, check off other and write I-129F

the NONE and N/A seem fine.

Hi there,

K1- beneficiary too. (Now married... about to file AOS)

Hope this reply will give you peace of mind.

Good luck :)

1. Applicant's residence for past 5 years.

I would just be honest. Not so hard to put more than one address. It's were you lived, resided. (Not were you got your mail). Were you lived. You can state it was college dorm... no big deal. They just want to know where you were.

2. Applicant's last address (outside of the U.S ) for more than 5 years.

Answer the question as stated. It's kind of like the first one.

3. Applicant's employment for last 5 years.

State employment dates, last 5 years.

I had to put an extra sheet for that, also had a new job, with several different employers. I typed in what I could then when I ran out of room I typed in ( See attached continuation sheet). If you wanted it put everything on the cont. sheet, I'm sure that's fine.

Best way to label it correctly? This is what I did...

(Top right corner...)

G-325A, Biographic Information

Continuation Sheet

'Name'

The rest of the sheet, I made it look exactly like the question on the form. A line for signature & date, at end of page.

If you didn't work, during a period of time, state so. Unemployed, or school... Just make sure your dates flow, make sense.

4. Last occupation abroad "if not shown above".

Did you work outside of your country? Did you include it on that sheet? Then you've listed it, with the question above.

You could answer... *Occupation abroad listed on continuation sheet*

'if not shown above (on that sheet) then you answer the question.

5. This form is submitted in connection for an application for : ?

I put..

Check "Other" (Specify) Form I-129F in the space beside it.

6. Signature, as well as the box under the word "Applicant" at the VERY bottom of the page.

From my understanding, I fill out both on my form-- and my fiance fills out both on her own G325A form. Is this correct?

Yes. You do YOUR G325A and she does HER G325A.

7. Where to put None, and where to put N/A.

Area's where I put "None": File Number, U.S Social Security Number, Current Husband/Wife, Former Husbands/Wife, Alien Registration Number.

Area's where I put "N/A" : If your native alphabet is in other Roman letters.

Correct?

A: Correct... As long as you both answer truthful, that's all that matters... if you put N/A instead of none... or vice-versa.. it's okay... just be honest :)

Happy Journeys!

remember, they will be checking your jobs against your tax records, so anything you've done for cash (I know how college is) would not be included, any job that you held even for 4 hours but ended up paying taxes for should be on the list. Dont be afraid to use additional pages, i know someone who used half a stack of paper for one of the immigrational forms while form itself was only 2 pages.

And yes, do not forget to put "see attached page", or better yet put a specific number of a page where each part begins (if multiple pages need extra space)

hope you have a good job now, so you dont have to do the mess with sponsors.
