DS230 and DS3032

[Todd-Leah 0]

In DS230, question 29 ask for Petitioner's name and address. Is this question asks for the USC's name and address? The sample form on VJ has the USC's name and address. But, I am a little confused whether the non USC, who is the beneficiary, is considered the petitioner for the purpose of this form.

Do you write down name and address of the USC or the non USC for question 29 in DS230?

Glitches on forms

On form DS230, question 25, ask for dates and residence in the previous visits to the States, the dates field indicate (mm/yyyy), but I kept getting error message trying to key in (mm/yyyy), but no problem with (mm/dd/yyyy). My last visit to the US was 8 years ago and I couldn't remember the exact dates, I want to put down the month and year only.

while filling up the DS3032 form, the Last name keep pop up in the space for "country"?

Do you experience the same? what did you do ?

DS230 is form for the beneficiary in this case beneficiary becomes applicant, petitioner (USC) stays as a petitioner. So on question 29 you have to put petitioners/USC name and address.

If you are unable to put the date/name while filling forms u can always after priniting hand write the same part.

Yes, the DS230 is practically an application for the immigration visa, where the applicant, a non-USC, is a petitioner.

I am not sure about question 25, but I think the system will not allow you to put just month and year you should put date, month and year. You can look at you passport custom stamps to find out the exact date. If you don't have that passport anymore I would just put an estimation date.

While reading on the DS230, I ran across a caption that got me thinking; I read The DS230 is practically an application for the immigration visa, where the applicant, a non-U.S.C., is a petitioner or I guess you could call it a incrimination sheet because here is where you have to tell on your self if you have been in the U.S.A. illegally so after reading that, i thought Isn't this a place where you could attach a page for answering question #25 dates and residence of previous visits to the States, EX.

I was in the united states last in 04/2003. I was ordered removed because I had no papers. This was only because of my attempted entry in 1996. In 1996 I arrived at the border with proper passport and visa, but based solely on my looks, a officer tore my passport up and through me in jail! Once out, I was faced with the fact, that in California where my husband and my four month old daughter. My husband had no money for day care, or time, or even experience to tend to our baby. I had no money for layers, with fear, anger and indescribable worry about my daughter; as any mother would, I did not think to seek help at the Mexican embassy! I thought only of my daughter, and I went for her! It was the most traumatic experience of my life! I latter retuned to Mexico on my own. In 2003 I was single with two kids, and I made a mistake. Fueled from desperation, and a dream to better my life, I chose to return to the United States, and I regret it! It cost me dearly, I received sever penalties, but I was penalized for something that was not a mistake, something that was not my fault . Mexico would not give me a new passport as they did not believe what had happened, and you could imagine what I thought of American immigration! So in 2003 a combination of being young and ignorant, I tried to return with out papers and I was caught. In 1996 the United States made a mistake, but all they can say now, is their sorry! I have no recourse for that, as immigration law is above the law, it cannot be taken to court! Now I not only pay for my mistakes in 2003, I pay for a mistake the United States made in 1996!

what do you guys think could you get a sympothy vote with a 230
