We're filling out the G-325A form for Lena's Adjustment of Status application. She arrived here on a K1 and we've gotten married this past March.

I'm assuming where it asks 'Husband or Wife (If none, so state.)' that they are looking for the word 'Husband' and the following boxes to have my (the husband's) information. If this is not correct, please tell me!

Under the 'Applicant's residence last five years' does where we are living together in the USA as of her arrival (via K1) count as a residence to be listed here?

We previously hired an attorney to handle the K1 application, but decided to go at it on our own for the AOS. I remember that they printed this G-325A on 4 different colored papers. Is this something that the USCIS requires/favors? If so, what color is for each page? Thanks.

Under the 'Applicant's residence last five years' does where we are living together in the USA as of her arrival (via K1) count as a residence to be listed here? Yes; you would put current address and date she began living there to Present Time (which is already pre-filled). The following entries would be where she lived before the current address, with the dates, for the last five years.

I don't know if they require it, but I printed each out on the corresponding color paper; although I tend to be a bit ####### that way. :blush: If so, what color is for each page? Page 1 is white; Page 2 is green; Page 3 is pink; Page 4 is blue. Thanks.

I printed my G-325A on white paper, and nothing happened. I had no idea they needed different colors for each page.

I sure did not print out each form on a separate sheet of paper - most people don't.

I'm glad that those questions about the husband/wife and addresses were answered as such because that's what we did :thumbs:

Are you 100% on this? On the fillable PDF form, there are 'entry spots' to add separate information for:

'Husband or Wife (If none, so state)' <--- field in question

Family Name (For wife, give maiden name)

First Name

Birth Date (mm/dd/yyyy)

City and Country of Birth

Date of Marriage

Place of Marriage

Seems that I'm still back at the same question since there is a place for me to put my name in the other boxes which follow. :blink:

Did they just inadvertently create 2 places to enter something where they just meant for a place to put either 'none' or my last name.

Note: On the current form the 'Husband and Wife' field appear as the same box as the 'Family Name' field, but on the form that my lawyer put together back in March of '06, they were separate boxes, which implies to me that there is a separate answer for each.

If nobody knows for 100% certainty, I'll give a call and make sure I post the 'official response' here.

In the box that says "Husband or wife" the correct answer would be "Husband" or "Wife" or "NONE". The following columns would be the name of the persons husband or wife.

So, if this is the wife's G325A, you would put the word "Husband" followed by the name and details of the husband in the following columns.

Yes, pj1959us was wrong. I doubled checked this against the G-325As that I filed just now.

We wrote WIFE and then wrote my (given) name. I won't be using my new last name on the form (but I'm the USC).

Since Lena is the foreign spouse and this is her G-325A, this is what she puts down:

Husband or Wife: HUSBAND

Family Name (For wife, give maiden name): YOUR LAST NAME

First Name: YOUR FIRST NAME

Birth Date (mm/dd/yyyy): YOUR BIRTH DATE

City and Country of Birth: YOUR CITY AND COUNTRY OF BIRTH
