I would suggest not using whatever other site’s guide. It is outdated by at least 2 years.

 

No G-325. Always go by the official instructions.

Thanks, those were my thoughts as well. I just noticed that the g325 form was expiring 2022 so i wanted to make sure. I was also wondering if it's necessary since everything on it is in the i-129. Thank you everyone

That is the OMB expiration date. Unless you are working for the OMB and evaluating it, it doesn't apply to you. For your use, Edition Dates are what matter.

Correct, all the info from the G-325 was put into the individual petitions. So they became unnecessary and were removed as a required document.

I-129F* The I-129 is a petition for a worker.

I know nothing online every goes away, but how do guides that mention that form even get found anymore?

In that case, the only form you need to fill/send is i129F. G-1145 is optional.

I guess there's also the G-1450 Credit Card form if that's your payment method. Right...?

Well, now you are digressing from the main form your were focussing on. Yes, if paying by credit card. Then there is G-28 as well if you are using a lawyer. Those are add ons, more of a choice.

Please use the optional checklist/instructions that accompany the I-129f on the USCIS.gov site.  Exhuming out of date info from dubious websites will lead to a world of delays and RFEs and possibly even rejections.

@payxibka yes I know about the supporting documents am asking about the forms I need the l-129F ,the G-1145 and what other document  

like am talking about the main documents leave alone  the evidence,birth certificates 

You asked what was needed,  the i129f is the only form that is required 

YMMV
