Hi guys,

Well it's time for me to send off the ds -230 for the wife, and they list the following, which is easy enough to understand except for one catagory:

1 birth cert

2 court and prison rec'ds

3 deportation docs

4 marriage cert

5 marriage termination "final and annulment"

6 military recd's

7 petitioner docs

8 photo copy of passport of wife

9 police certifs

10 2ea 2x2 pics of wife

Now what my confusion is..is that for #7 petitioner documents it states "Applicants in the following visa catagories are required to provide (1) original or cert copy of their Petitioner's birth certificate (2) original or certified copy of their Petitioner's marriage certificate from the Petitioner's current and all previous marriages.

visa catagories: 1. Parent of a U.S. citizen who is at least 21 years old (IR-5)

2. Brothers and sisters of United States citizens (F4)

Am I spose to fit in to this catagory? I have done this whole cr-1 visa thing from day 1 but I can't figure out what in the world they are talking about..wouldn't my current marriage certificate be the same as my wife's? Or do they mean something else? ANYONE who has dealt with this ds-230 submittal of doc's maybe can tell me what they are getting at..it would be greatly appreciated..I have all other bases covered..good luck to all and god bless..J and bing

once you find her..never let her go

BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT YOU CAN RUIN THE PRESENT BY WORRYING OVER THE FUTURE

TRIP.... OVER LOVE, AND YOU CAN GET UP

FALL.... IN LOVE, AND YOU FALL FOREVER

I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, JUST NOT THE ABILITY

LIKE THE MEASLES, LOVE IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN IT COMES LATER IN LIFE

LIFE IS NOT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE, ITS THE WAY IT IS

I MAY NOT BE WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT IM SURE NOT WHERE I WAS

You've answered your own question. You're applying for a CR-1 visa for your spouse, so those documents are not necessary.

Naturalization

N-400 package mailed: 04/16/2013

N-400 package delivered: 04/16/2013

NOA1 date: 04/17/2013

Biometrics: 08/23/2013

Interview: 10/07/2013

Oath: 01/23/2014

DONE!

You need you guys Certified NSO MC.

Also your wifes NBI clearance.

Good idea to submit a NSO CENOMAR also or have your wife take it to her interview.

K1 denied, K3/K4, CR-1/CR-2, AOS, ROC, Adoption, US citizenship and dual citizenship

!! ALL PAU!
