I am filling out the I-130 and see that for addresses, it requests a province.

 

What does this mean for in the UK? Specifically for in London.

 

For example, I need to provide the province for the London US Embassy at this address: 33 Nine Elms Ln, London SW11 7US located at the London borough of Wandsworth.

 

However, after much research, I am still not seeing what the 'province' is.

 

Any help is much appreciated.

 

Sincerely,

A very stressed (but determined) wife

Has your UK husband not told you what a province is in? So basically state where you’ve lived!! It’s basic thang. So in layman terms-put down your current and previous addresses 🙈

The province is an ADDITIONAL area in the address detail form. If you can see the attached photo you will see why I have asked my question.

 

 So my question is, what exactly is the province for the address of the US embassy for that address I have provided: 33 Nine Elms Ln, London SW11 7US located at the London borough of Wandsworth.

 

And yes, of course I have discussed it with my husband.

 

Thank you.

London’s a city and not a province. It’s not the United States - as your aware. We don’t have provicences in the UK!!! The UK isn’t large enough for states/province’s. Hopefully someone more helpful will help you out. I’d personally leave province out as it’s n/a ☺️

It is not Canada.  There is no province.  Correct answer is N/A.

UK does not have provinces. Canada does. Nor does State and zip code apply to the U.K.

leave it blank.

Right, calm down. If you are not here for positive help, then what are you doing here? Shaming people is really not the point of this website, is it? Have a nice day. x
