Mother In-Law Birth Date

[FloydNIN_90 0]

Hi,

I am preparing a i 130 petition and my wife is almost finished with the form 130A. In Part 1 Question 18, it is asking for information about my wife's parents.

Her Mother is from Morocco and does not have an official birthdate,

So all her official documents from Belgium (her current residence) and elsewhere show this birthdate - X/X/1958. Sometimes on tickets and other lesser importance documents they will have to write in 1/1/1958.

 

We plan to leave in X/X/1958 as birthdate and on Page 6 (Additional information) we will clarify why this is her birthdate and attach a copy of her ID showing this birthdate. Would rather submit that in the form now than wait for an RFE.

Is this enough/correct or should we go about this a different way? Anyone had similar experiences?

 

Thank you

Quite a unique situation. If you’re using the fillable form you cannot our in X/X. You will have to print and fill out with pen.

 

Ultimately I don’t think either way X/X or 1/1 will lead to problems because you have evidence to back up both.

If 1/1/1958 is being used in some of the documents, i suggest you use that DOB in the form. There is no reason to put provide any reasoning or additional information.

01/01/1958 will do.  It will not "hurt" to explain it in the additional information page, though probably not really necessary.  It's OK on the printed form, to hand write unknown for unknown information or XX/XX/1958.
