I am filing forms I-130 and I-130a for my foreign spouse who is still living outside of the US. In the Instructions for Forms I-130 and I-130a it states:
"If you are filing for your spouse, he or she must complete and sign Form I-130A, Supplemental Information for
Spouse Beneficiary. If your spouse is overseas, Form I-130A must still be completed, but your spouse does not have
to sign Form I-130A. Form I-130A must be submitted with Form I-130."
This means that my beneficiary would not have to sign the part of the I-130a form that asks for the Beneficiary's signature? Do I leave it blank or sign my name in their place?
Also my Beneficiary does not speak English, but since my Beneficiary will not sign this form should I also leave the "interpreter's" signature and information section blank? Or would they technically still have had to read everything and therefore have used an interpreter?
I am worried about leaving these parts blank since they seem like very important parts, which if not filled out could result in rejection of the form.
