Example Form I-130 Incorrect example answer

[RobbieG 94]

Site peeps,

In the Example Forms tab there is an example I-130 pdf.

Part C, question 17 asks about "Information about your alien relative."

The example answer is the name of the US Citizen from the first section of the form and not the alien relative. It should be the name of the alien relative in the example.

Side note, I find the site generally helpful and valuable.

Question 17 on the I-130 is asking about relatives of the beneficiary, including spouses. When petitioning a spouse, the petitioner's name would be listed there.

Gotcha. I feel dumb now.

If it is wrong on my I-130 that was submitted in Feb (I put the beneficiary's name, etc) what should I do?

Right now, there is nothing you can do. This is a common mistake and will probably be overlooked. The very worst that will happen is they will issue an RFE (I have yet to hear of that happening for this).
