geometry optimization of the first excited state of the CH2NH2 free radical

Dear all,

Could you tell me whether the below iput is OK or not? I want to perform the geometry optimization of the first excited state of the CH2NH2 free radical.
I have many molecules calculated by CIS before. Now, I need to calculate free radicals so GUGA is employed since CIS cannot handle free radical. Can the results from the below input be "fairly" compared with the CIS results? I hope the comparison between the properties of molecules calculated using CIS and those using GUGA does not affected by different algorithms.

$CONTRL RUNTYP=Optimize $END
$CONTRL SCFTYP=ROHF $END
$CONTRL ICHARG=0 MULT=2 $END
$CONTRL NZVAR=12 $END
$CONTRL CITYP=GUGA $END
$CIDRT GROUP=C1 IEXCIT=1 NFZC=2 NDOC=8 $END
$GUGDIA NSTATE=1 $END
$GUGDM IROOT=1 $END
$ZMAT DLC=.T. AUTO=.T. $END
$BASIS GBASIS=N31 NGAUSS=6 $END
$BASIS NDFUNC=1 NPFUNC=1 $END
$BASIS DIFFSP=.TRUE. DIFFS=.TRUE. $END
$SYSTEM TIMLIM=10000 MWORDS=100 $END
$P2P P2P=.T. DLB=.T. $END
$STATPT NSTEP=200 METHOD=GDIIS $END

Thanks!
