My fiance is Peruvian and speaks English fairly well (My Spanish is practically non-existant), but she had trouble with the original forms written in legalese. Fortunately, I could walk her through them as I was in Lima at the time. However, it is very unlikely that I will be in Lima at the time the forms eventually arrived and, although it appears that we are at least a few months away from this scenario, is it possible to get the forms sent to her with Spanish translations? And, even so, are they fairly comprehensible to someone not familiar with the technical aspect of our government documents?

Anyone have any experience or problems regarding this?

What documents are you talking about? it would help if you were a little more clear. I don't know about the consulate you are using but the forms were available in the native language of my fiancee plus available in english. the numbers are the same for the questions on both forms so you would be able to walk through it with your fiancee. I would go to the website for your fiancee's consulate and see if they have the forms available for you there.

I know there is a Spanish version of DS-156 if that is what you are referring too

YMMV
