My husband and I are filling the forms I-130 and I-130a. We have read the instructions but we still have some questions:

 

Form I-130a

  1. In the part 6.a (physical address 2), if i have lived in the same place for more than 5 years, do i leave it blank or type N/A? I typed N/A in 6.a and left the rest in blank (6.b, 6.c, etc). Is that correct?
  2.  Same as before. I have never had a job. So in part 2, employment history, I typed unemployed in Item 1 (employer 1), and left the rest blank. Then, I typed N/A in employer 2 and left the rest in blank. In additional information, I wrote i have never worked as i have been going to school. Is that good? 

 

Form I-130

  1. My husband's address and mailing address are the same. But in Address History (Part 2), we are not sure if in Physical Address 1 he should type his current address, leave that part in blank or type the other address he has had in the last five years?
  2. In Part 4, Names of beneficiary's spouses, in the items 21.a,b and c we have to write the name of my husband, but leave item 22 in blank or type N/A, right?. Then In Spouse 2 type N/A since i have never been married before, correct?

 

Thanks!

You seem to be confusing the words type and write.  You cannot type N/A on the form.  You would "type" Not Applicable.  If you are "writing", you can "write" N/A.  For your specific questions, Not Applicable may well be the correct answer.  Some questions ARE "applicable" but the correct answer is "NONE" which CAN be typed on the form.
