i-130 (former employment include study?)


Recommended Posts

On the i-130 where you list all previous employment, does being a student count? My first reaction was no, but I saw this suggestion given on immihelp or nola or one of those other help sites... In hindsight, I know that whenever filing taxes, I"ve often used "student" in the employment category too. It's a pretty common thing.

 

So when looking back to my past five years here, should I include my time that I was enrolled in a local university degree program? i.e., employer, XYZ University, position: Student

I just wanted to list what I did as a follow up in case anybody else encounters this question. My biggest gripe with these sites are that people never come back to post "what worked" for them after they attempted the process.

 

So, considering my question about whether I should list my Master's and PHD programs here as employment (similar to how we do in the States when doing taxes, or filling out other forms) I listed both of those in china as part of my employment history leading up to my current job in China.

 

So if you have any similar questions, you can be sure that doing as I have done should not be problematic in any way.
