I just realized there may be a problem on the DS-230 I submitted. It's another item 20 problem I missed. My wife put in an actual date rather than "present" in that field. The date ws the day she filled out the form so now it's not exactly correct. I wonder if that might slip through ok?

If we have to resubmit the 230, do I have to get her to sign it again? That would take a long time, be expensive and be a serious hassle.

This reply is not from experience, we just sent ours in too. However...

If the date she put in that field is the same date as her signature on the form, it seems that would be as valid as saying 'present'. After, all how can you say where you'll be living in the future? (I.e., on a date after the form was signed.)

My thought is: Don't worry about that.

If you had left it blank, I think you will get an RFE. But by putting an actual date in there, I think your application would get past NVC and get completed.

But if there's a date in there, I would look at it as if your wife moved out on that day and there's always the chance, albeit very small, the consular officer in the embassy might notice and ask.... so you moved on so and so? where did you moved to?

Item 20 is definitely about place(s) of residence. I really think its no problem.
