forms printing requirement

[allenD 0]

Hi team

 

Can I please consult you on more potential problem?

First please let me introduce you to how I processed the forms.

1. I fill in the form to the best I can in the original uscis downloaded format (let's call it uscis version).
2. Then I "print" the forms as flattened pdf (let's call it flattened version) in windows and used adobe acrobat to fill in the rest of the blanks. (adding N/As, fill in the blanks where I cannot type previously) and
3. then printed the forms.
    

Now my question is that I noticed the forms I printed in the flattened version are slightly different from the form if I print directly from uscis version. the flattened version is slightly shrinked by maybe 5-10% to fit on the paper margin. Is that a problem? The reason I asked is I wonder if uscis will scan my forms and cross exam it with a blanked template form on a computer to extract the information(this is how I process some documents nowadays). Then shrinking the form will be problematic. If they just rely on human eyes to read the forms, it would be fine.

 

Thanks

You can remove the margins, in the settings, before printing your last version.

 

However, this is inconsequential - as long as it's readable.
