Beneficiary Address History (merged topics)

[Yann21 0]

Hello,

This is probably overkill but just asking to make sure; I recently graduated university last year and moved back in with my parents- a house I have lived at since 2004. From 2020-2023 I lived at a different house in the city I studied in and filled this in on the beneficiary address history section however while 2020-2023/2023-PRESENT is (as of now) the past 5 years of address history do i put 2020-2023 (Uni address) and then 2023-PRESENT for my home address OR do I put 2004-Present for the home address. My only concern is them seeing two addresses at the same time as some sort of mistake and now im panicked. Filling out these forms is stressful! Sorry for a possibly dumb question, Thanks!

If you lived at a different address than your family home then you haven't lived in your family home since 2004. 

 

You should put your CURRENT address as 20XX - PRESENT.

You should then put any previous addresses prior to 20XX - PRESENT.

 

Every different address and different time period should be included as a separate entry, even if the same address is repeated, up to 5 years (although mine went beyond 5 years due to how the years fell).

For example;

 

123 Apple Street

2022 - PRESENT

 

456 Orange Road

2020 - 2022

 

123 Apple Street

2018 - 2020

 

789 Peach Lane

2016 - 2018

Home address is listed as the one where u have DL for your state Unless"

 u register to vote using college address

OR

u change to college address to change state residency for state tuition purposes  vs expensive out of state tuition

 

Most of us keep parents address for purposes of parents filing out FAFSA /student aid

Okay that makes sense! To be safe, should I repeat my current address as 2004-> when I moved out in 2020 as my move in date was In July 2020, and its not been 5 years since its only Jan 2025. Better to be on the safe side? So 3 Entries

Not sure this is applicable for me since I studied in the UK where I'm from, I lived there for 3 years and the accommodation was not affiliated with my university so probably best to put it down. I did not register to vote there however

Yes, repeat the address as many times as needed (providing a different address is detailed inbetween). As I said, you can go beyond the 5 years if needed. It's better to do that then less than 5.

When filling out the I-129f in the additional information section (Part 8 ) If I needed to add additional information about my addresses (as the beneficiary), in the name section whose name do we put; the petitioner , or the beneficiary ? 

[OldUser 7,196]

Do you need extra space?

This section can be used for information about petitioner or beneficiary if there wasn't enough space on prior pages.

 

For example, if petioner or beneficiary moved too many times, they may not have enough space to list all addresses on prior pages. You'd use this part 8 to add additional info.

 

You can leave this section blank unless you need more space for questions on other pages.

Yes! I need to add an additional address within the past 5 years and so does my fiance (Petioner)

I don't see a problem putting petitioner's name and last name, then using space for both questions about petitioner and beneficiary as you list part number and question for each answer. If petitioner or beneficiary need to use entire page, you can make few copies.

[Family 4,113]

The name is for the ‘ YOU ‘ completing the form..see pg 1, item 1, so it will always be the Petitioner info. 
‘Additional info just needs page, part and item/question identifiers as @OldUser advised
