Filling out i-130, confused

[Clairebear 3]

Hi, guys. I am K1 visa filer. I am here for helping my friend couple. It’s little confused to fill out i-130. Can I get helps for my friends? Thanks!

 

My friend is Japanese who lives in US with work visa (so he currently lives in  state) and when they got married in US, my friend got new family name.

 

When they fill out this question, he needs to fill out new family name and address (US) in Japanese? Or he fills out his Japanese family name of his family side in Japanese?

 

For example, if his original family name is Akiyama but new family name is Miller. Then what does he fill out in blank? Akiyama in Japanese or Miller in Japanese?

This is a present tense question, so use the present name.  If current family name is not Japanese, then only enter Given names in Japanese.  If current address is in USA, not need to enter an address here.  Is she adjusting status or leaving the US to get an immigrant visa?

Aww Okay then he can enter his given name in Japanese. And just leave the empty blanks of current family name and address?

 

He stays in US with working visa, and he is adjusting status I guess!

That would be correct, but you need to stop guessing.  If he's staying and adjusting status, you're in the wrong forum, and you'll need a lot more than an I-130.
