bethelion Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 On the 325 bio form it asks for her signature and then under that asks for her name in native characters. Should she sign her name in english even though she does not write in english or should she sign her name the way she normally does in chinese characters? Also on the Fiancee letter of intent same issue....should she sign in chinese or english? Thanks for not laughing to long. Brian Link to comment

Guest Rob & Jin Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 How would she normally sign something? Jin signed it in pinyin, then wrote it in chinese characters in the appropriate place. Link to comment
jim_julian Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Since you're submitting to the US government I would suggest she sign in pinyin and then also enter the characters in the native language spot. Everyone at the GZ consulate knows that in China she signs with a character but only a few will continue that process in the US, most will sign with their name in pinyin (or a new name).

I believe that Dougie has that record... Link to comment
david_dawei Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 most sign in chinese characters and have no problem.. some will change to pinyin towards the later documents and some don't... don't worry about this.. usually best to make sure the name is shown next to characters just to toss them a bone...

warpedbored Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Since she will be moving to America it would be a good idea to establish a pinyin signature. My wife signed her's in pin yin and wrote the name in the lower box. Oh and only stupid question is the one you are afraid to ask. Link to comment

Pinyun is NOT native Chinese characters. While it might squeak through as it's a signature, they are asking for a signature using Chinese Characters, in the language that is native to her.

No - two separate blanks. One says signature. The other says name in native characters. She should use a signature she is comfortable with. If this is her first time signing pinyin, it would likely change as she gets used to it. Use Chinese characters, unless she is already comfortable signing her name in pinyin. Link to comment

Native Characters ARE NOT PINYUN. If you want to do it correctly use Chinese characters as it requests. Again, it's a signature. As you know, people can sign their name any way they like. It can be an "X" if you want it to be; they will accept it. But, to fulfill the request just give them what they ask for. http://i3.tinypic.com/4ta9sh1.jpg Edited November 1, 2007 by ShaQuaNew (see edit history) Link to comment

It does NOT tell you how to sign your name. YOU choose your own signature. In a DIFFERENT blank, it asks for your name in native alphabet BELOW. Do both. One in each blank. But your signature may very well be in native characters. Link to comment

It states right in the field that IF YOUR NATIVE ALPHABET IS OTHER THAN ROMAN LETTERS..... ....that EXCLUDES PINYUN..... Anyone born in China has a native alphabet. It's the Chinese alphabet, which contains more than 50,000 characters. That's what they are requesting it be signed using. Link to comment
