[Agent Name}

123 Main Street

Anytown, USA 12345

Example:

John Doe

123 Main Street

New York, NY 12345

I was wondering about this too, since the original template says

[Agent Name]

123 Main Street

Anytown, USA 12345

So we should have the state instead of "USA" (makes sense)

Another thing I'd like to confirm -- I saw on another post many pages back --

on DS 230 coversheet, the names should be LAST, FIRST, MIDDLE? Last name capitalized or regular? Also it should be this way for [Agent Name] above the address also?

Thanks!

USA= state

Yes, capitalized. Ex. DOE, JOHN EDWARD

Also it should be this way for [Agent Name] above the address also?

It depends on what you have submitted on the DS3032 as your agent name. If you have included the middle name on it then it should read as John Edward Doe, otherwise it will just be John Doe.

Hello, thank you for the info. Let me make sure that I got it right -- it's detail, but I want to make sure I get it right:

[Agent name] - in regular order (FN MN-if you included LN)-- just the first letters capitalized. - comes from DS3032

[beneficiary's name] - all capitalized, LN, FN MN

[Petitioner name] - all capitalized, LN, FN MN - comes from forms that petitioner has submitted

LN=last name, FN=first name, MN=middle name

Is this correct? Thank you!

You are good to go.

ok let me just reconfirm this for the DS-230 ( NOT DS-3032 choice of agent)......can someone check their offical DS-230 and confirm this, because I have heard some people putting FIRST MIDDLE LAST with no comma or anything for all spots, just as they received on the DS-3032 choice of agent form.

there are 3 spots on the DS-230 coversheet where we have to enter names.

(1)The first is at the top near the small barcode as follows:

[Agent Name]

123 Main Street

Anytown, USA 12345

-for this first part I have my name listed in this order LAST, FIRST MIDDLE

(2) the second spot asks for Beneficiary name and looks like this:

"...This letter contains instructions for processing the immigrant visa case of [beneficiary Name]. We have received all necessary Immigrant Visa fees for this case."

-for this part I have my wife's name as LAST, FIRST MIDDLE

(3) the final spot at the very bottom asks for the Petitioner name and looks like this:

"FOR FAMILY-BASED IMMIGRANT VISAS: If this is a family-based visa case, then the petitioner,

[Petitioner Name] should pay the Affidavit of Support (I-864) Fee and complete an Affidavit of Support (I-864) form. "

-for this last spot I have my name listed as LAST, FIRST MIDDLE

please help before I submit

I am sure this question was asked already...

But still is it safe to send the Choice of Agent via e-amil? Do NVC accept it?

[Mononoke28 135]

It is still safe but some members were experiencing a long wait to hear back from NVC. I believe it was 2-4 weeks.

Thanks for the reply,

Do yuo think it is a good idea to send DS-3032 (Choice of Agent) via regular mail as well... just to back up the e-mail.

[RandyandRina 2]

I will send them a harcopy rather than an email. Thats what I did, and was entered right away!

Yes, definitely. If you are able to either wait for the DS-3032 to arrive, or can generate your own (following James' shortcuts), then go ahead and mail it. Most of us only used the e-mail shortcut because we didn't have the beneficiary fill it out and sign it ahead of time.

My hubby scanned and e-mailed me DS-3032. So after sending the Choice of agent via e-mail to NVC I've sent a hardcopy of DS-3032 today... Don't really know if I did the right thing or not..
