I-129F Military Bases/Employment

[ryvfader 45]

I've tried the military help email through USCIS and their military number but so far havn't been able to get past automated systems on this. I figured it wouldn't hurt to see if I can get a quick answer here. 

 

I've been in the military for 10+ years with the changes in locations that come with it. When listing my employment history would I be able to list just the military and the address provided on our W2's for the entire duration I've been employed by them or does the process require that I list each base individually as separate employers for the purpose of the petition?

 

Thanks for the help.

Single employer

Thanks for the response, was hoping this was the case and I wouldn't have to find addresses for every previous unit.

Payxibka is correct. 1 employer only. When i did my k1 fiance visa in 2017, My husband just used the one on his w2 for the company name df... something and that address. He is in the us navy. And i was the one who did all the forms and he just signed it.

Perfect, thanks for the response also, this is exactly how I entered it, branch listed as employer and the DFAS address off the W2's for the employer address. Common sense says this is fine and they are plenty familiar with applications from military folks but at the same time I've had some other federal paperwork that required more detailed history which made me second guess.

You're welcome! Anything to help. I used to be clueless doing everything on my own and my now husband was deployed for like 8 or 11 months at a time in the air carrier ship. So i know how it feels and i was so happy to be helped by so many people here. 

 

And you saying the dfas reminded me typing that out and cleaveland cause i was second guessing that address too when i was like shouldn't it be us navy and wherever your home port is like san diego california? Hehehe. I was ocd and typed everything out in adobe photoshop because i wanted all my answers on a certain font and center center alignment. Hahaha.

Oh and i almost forgot to say.. good luck in the process! I was like extra ahead of everything in both my k1 and aos process and in fact even on this expedited n400 under ina 319b journey because of all the info i've read from this forum through the entire process. I hope yours goea smoothly!
