Would you like to reunite with your spouse in the US?

It’s a common idea, especially for those who are married. Many expats long to bring their spouses along with them in a foreign country. But, immigration laws and policies are so strict that sometimes they have to give it up. And, the determined ones choose the immigration Form G-325A.

Let’s see what it is below.

What is immigration form G-325A?

Before passing through any foreign country’s borderline, its immigration officers want your biographic information. They want to know who you’re, what your residence is, who your spouse is. If you’re working, you have to mention it there in this form.

In the nutshell, it’s self-explanatory biographic information. The USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services) mandates it to be filled. Later on, it takes a final decision over your petition for acquiring its green card.

Why is it used for?

As it has already been aforementioned, the form 325a is filed for collecting extensive information about the petitioner. If you’ve tied a knot, you can live with your spouse in the US. The submission of this form allows you to do so. You have to enclose this form with Form I-129F (a petition for Alien Fiance)/ Form I-130 (a petition for Alien Relative).

And, if you’re likely to adjust your status and become a green card holder, it will be a necessary formality. The USCIS looks into your previous residence(s) & employment status. It identifies what kind of relationship you and the American petitioner have.

The American immigration authority runs a deep background check. This kind of verification helps it to determine whether or not the information loaded in the Form 325A is accurate and consistent. If you fail this verification test, your application will be rejected. If you want to re-submit, you might have to struggle for a long time to resolve this issue.

How can you file for this form online?

Like any other form, it can also be downloaded from the official website of the US immigration office. Download the form. Take its print out. Fill the requisite details. Mail it to the similar address where you filed the primary application form before.

Don’t bother about its fee as you don’t need to pay it separately.

How should you fill this form?

Whatever you fill in this form, that info must be consistent, honest and accurate. It should be a ditto-copy of your primary application details. While filling, you should keep these points in your head:

1. Must provide your signature in this form.
2. Carefully download the form. Avoid mistake of downloading forms that is quite similar.
3. Must provide complete and authentic information.

Besides, there are a few things that you should drill into your head while filling this form:

1. Spouse’ name should be written completely. Mention all names that you have ever used.
2. You should mention A-Number. It’s an eight/nine-digits long Alien Registration Number. The USCIS issues it. The Department of Homeland Security also holds right to issue it.
3. You have to input your marital details. It’s vital. If you’re a divorce, it would come across the fact if you have terminated your previous marriage. It proves a milestone to take preventive measures against the marital fraud. If you find it tough to deal with the officers, you can contact an immigration attorney or immigration lawyer.
4. Wherever you lived in the previous five years, feed it there. Mention former and current addresses. Begin with current address. Trail it in a chronological order.
5. Putting in your employment details is absolutely necessary. Follow the chronological order as you do with the residential address. If you’re unemployed, put ‘Homemaker’ there. And if you run self-owned business, provide its name. The students can type ‘student’ under occupation. Don’t leave any cell vacant.
6. If your form doesn’t have enough space, you can take out another blank form. But, do label it as a supplement at its header.

While keeping all these guidelines in your mind, you can get off its rejection. So, always take a cursory look over the entire detail. Then, go for its submission.
