Regarding "Employment" in G-325A

[PandaSmile]

I recently sent out my packet to my fiancee with forms for her to fill out. She took one of the forms and went to an advice place in China where they specialize in filling out immigration forms. My fiancee currently goes to school and does not work. Under the "Employment" section of China, one of the specialists there wrote "Student" as occupation with her school name and its address being in the "Employer name/address" section. I was thinking maybe it should be "None" instead because she doesn't actually have a job. I don't know what the place she took it to was, but she told me they help immigrants with many forms and necessary documents. Should I just tell her to leave it as "None" or continue with the "school/student" ? Maybe Student as a job sounds or perhaps "presents" better than actually no job at all for the beneficiary? Or maybe it's like that way in China? Hmm....

On the G-325A answering as she has is fine or none would be fine, just really doesn't matter either way. They seperate the education and employment sections on the DS-230 so I wouldn't spend too much time worrying about this answer.

 

Make sure you keep copies of EVERYTHING you send to the USCIS. You didn't know that you would be the governments off-site backup of your immigration forms. B)

 

In the future it helps if you can gather the info and complete the forms for her, but you have a bit of time before the next round is due with P-3.

My wife is currently a student learning English. When I completed the forms whenever it asked for current occupation or employment I answered "Student at English School". Thus far there have been no problems with that answer.
