thanks for your urgent response. but it shows at the bottom 02/27/2017.

 

can i use that?

 

kindly enlighten me on this " 

  • If you are using the 02/27/17 edition of Form I-130 to file for your spouse, you must also submit a Form I-130A, Supplemental Information for Spouse Beneficiary.
  • If you are using the 12/23/16 edition of Form I-130 to file for your spouse, you must also submit two Form G-325A, Biographic Information: one for you and one for your spouse.  Do not submit Form G-325"

I suppose the I-130A is to substitute the G-325A if you are using the 02/27/17 edition? I am not 100% sure. Somebody else can probably answer your question.

Here is the old one I had it saved on my computer. But there is no 12/23/16 version only the one before that which is the o3/25/15 version.

Sorry, I don't think there ever was a "12/23/2016" version. The prior version that was released was the 03/25/15 version, which was in use until the released the new version (02/27/17). I would suggest just using the new version since you don't have the old one. They are only accepting the old version for one more month.

Yes, the new I-130 and I-130A together replace the old I-130 with two G-325A's. As mentioned, you should use the new I-130 and I-130A, the old ones won't be accepted for much longer and you don't want to risk a rejection

If you read the instruction sheet, it will tell you it's $535 for I-130.

If you are applying for CR-1 for your spouse, she will get a green card immediately upon entry and won't need an I-765.

It's probably better if you and your spouse review the I-765 instructions here https://www.uscis.gov/i-765 There are many different categories to go through so check them out and come back with more specific questions. Also, in order to receive better help from fellow VJers, it's best that you fill in the necessary info on your timeline and state what visa you are adjusting from.
