please help -- some case specific questions

[dalison 0]

Hello everyone, this is my first post. I'm sorry if I am posting in the wrong place. First let me say that without even having posted anything, searching and reading this webpage has been enormously useful already. Thank you. I hope you guys can help me with some case specific questions that I couldn't find addressed adequately elsewhere.

Background information: I, US citizen, am finishing up my I-129f packet for my fiancee, a Hong Kong citizen.

Questions about my G325a:

First: Currently, I am unemployed (I am a student). Do I need to show that I will be employed in the future? Or do I wait for the AoS?

Second: The G325a asks for applicants previous employment. When my fiancee fills out this form, does she have to fill out this section because she is the beneficiary and not the applicant?

Third: When listing my addresses, do I only list my permanent address with my parents? I have had temporary arrangements, different each year, while I was going to school (300 miles away from my home). Should I list them all? Further, I am currently studying abroad in Hong Kong. Should I list my Hong Kong address as present living address? I have only been in Hong Kong for 4 months.

This immediately ties into my third question about filing from abroad. Because this document has to be filed in the US, I am of course using my parents address. However, can I simply mail my form from Hong Kong to the USCIS? Will they be alarmed that my package originates abroad? Also, if I list my present address as being in Hong Kong, wouldn't that cause problems?

Thanks for your help and consideration

Hi, welcome to VisaJourney!

First: either state all your past employments or state "none". You are not required to be employed to file I-129F but you will need a job/ a lot of assets or co-sponsor for affidavit of support needed at the interview stage.

Second: g325a needs to be completed in full by both petitioner and beneficiary. 'Applicant' in this case refers to the person the form is filled by.

Third: I'd list all your residence addresses in the last 5 yeas. As it asks for your present address to be listed put your hong kong one first.

The question after asks for last address outside us of more than 1 year, if none state none.

Four: What they mean is that you cannot file for k-1 visa via us consulate in beneficiary's country. You need to go through uscis but there is no problems sending paperwork from abroad. Just make sure you use correct filling address and use reliable courier company.

Good luck with your journey :-)
