DS-230 Question 25 - All previous visits to the US

We're filling out the last few questions on the DS-230 and we come to the question asking to us to list all of my husband's previous visits to the US. They give 3 spaces and he's been here practically every other week for the past year, not quite that many times the previous year, plus many, many visits to the US before we were in a relationship.

It would be practically impossible to accurately document visits. Any suggestions on what to put down? Or should we just attach a short note of explanation?

Thanks in advance!

(Oh, and to all of my fellow transferees who have gotten recent approvals -- You suck! Just kidding!!!!! :jest: Glad to see that you're moving on and that California is doing right by us! Kim -- I was *really* glad to see your approval! Save me a seat at NVC!)

Most folks will fill the blanks on the form, then attach an addendum to the question using a separate sheet giving more dates etc.

We (for example) had many visits going all the way back to childhood and did the best we could to include accurate dates. Just do the best you can. :thumbs:
