Using N/A on forms

[JasonS1 51]

Hi all,

 

As we prepare to file our AoS forms, we are wondering how often we really need to put N/A in. I know the instructions say that if something is not applicable write n/a, or if it's zero write none. What do I do in the following situations:

 

1. The form is being completed by me with no interpreter or preparer, do I need to write N/A on all these boxes?

2. If a question is yes or no only but is not applicable to me, do I write beside the question N/A?

3. Form I-765 Part 2 page 3/7 question 30 says " If you entered the eligibility (c)(8) in Item number 27, provide the information in items 30.a. - 30.g." If I never put c(8) into item #27 would I leave this blank or mark it as N/A? There are Yes or No questions, do I simply mark beside the question?

 

Just wondering at a high level how often I need to use N/A.

Thank you!

I was initially leaving several of these kinds of questions blank. Then I read a post here that gave me the idea of putting "N/A" in the first line and leaving the rest blank (for example, putting N/A in Preparer's Last Name and then leaving First Name, Middle Name blank; putting N/A in first line of Preparer's Address and leaving rest blank; etc). However, I read an article that said USCIS has been rejecting plenty of applications due to blank spaces and that they recommend putting N/A in every blank line... so I don't know anymore. It doesn't hurt to write N/A I guess.

 

I wouldn't put it next to "yes or no" questions though or places where it asks for SSN/A Number/etc.

I put N/A or none on all of fields that did not apply as I did not want to take any risks and it was all accepted without any issues! I did not put N/A next to any yes or no questions though.

I put N/A in every box in a section that did not apply. For example, 2nd or 3rd employers/addresses in the past 5-10 years where i only had 1.

 

Now if it was a box in a section where part of it applied, i left it blank. For example, having a first name and a last name, but no middle name. I would leave the middle name blank so they don't call me Max N/A Power.

 

Note that I submitted my application, but have not heard anything from them. So don't take my word as gospel truth from someone who has had a successful application. Wait for one of the OGs to reply to this

except for the I-129F, all documents I filed with them I have had NA or N/A for the first part of a section/question only. Never had a problem with it.
