Help regarding mistake on i130 online form!

[riiiiiiiii 1]

Hi everyone! I needed some help regarding our petition.

 

My husband(USC) filed an I130 petition online for me just yesterday. He made a mistake and I’ve been extremely worried sick about it. He accidentally checked ‘ Single/Not married’ as his marital status assuming that the section requires any information on past marriages whereas he should’ve written that he’s already married to me.. hence the entire section of his current marriage with me is empty!! Can anyone tell me if this is a big mistake and if so, what should be do about it? I’ve been extremely worried. Please help me out. THANKYOU and God bless you!

We made a mistake on the “date marriage ended” we put the date they got married accidentally and obviously they were still married and there was no marriage that ended.  So we corrected the page with the mistake, wrote out a detailed cover letter explaining the error and uploaded it at uscis asking them to replace pages so and so in original package. Also we mailed it to Uscis where our case was (Texas service center). And we sent a message on the myuscis site explaining the error and wrote out in detail the mistakes in there as well. A few weeks later they wrote a message on the case that is was under review and completed. so I assume they fixed it. We are at NVC now. They know people make mistakes so correct it now and keep copies to take to the interview in case you need to prove that you tried to correct it. Good luck!

Thank you for your response! 😊

 

However, we have more than one serious errors on the I130 form. We may have to resubmit the petition again 😞

Seriously, I think this is less of a problem than you might think.  Assuming the box was checked indicating the petition was being filed for a spouse and you also included the I-130a, which is only used in a spouse case, they will just ignore your error and process normally.  I entered the word "none" for the name of my spouse on the old G325a and it caused no problem at all, as other spouse related information was submitted as part of the whole.
