Problem with DS-156 K

[WelshDave86 0]

Hi

I was rechecking over the DS-156 K and have come across a minor issue. In question 5 -

List name, date and place of birth of all unmarried children under 21 years of age.

I have filled in my daughter's information but wasn't sure what to put for the next 2 parts - She WILL NOT be accompanying me, because she is already a USC and living with her mother; my fiancee, and she will then obviously NOT be following me - because she's there.

Does this mean I shouldn't list her at all?

Little bit confused.....

Any help would be greatly appeciated guys

The USC doesnt need a visa. If she is there ( here ) she wont be following you; she's in front of you. You dont need to list her.

I know she doesnt need a visa! lol. That isnt an issue. How sure are you that I neednt list her at all tho? It does say ALL children, regardless of where they are...

You need to list her. Answer No to both questions. She will not be following or accompanying you because she is already there.

Good Luck in you journey.

Thanks. I've done exactly what you said, I wasn't sure if to add a note below to clarify. Seems pretty sensible to leave it as it is tho.

Thanks again

You said you already listed her so as you say it isnt an issue. The issues you ask about are included in my responce. Its just common sense.

If you read what the form actually states it asks how many children you have. I DO need to list her on the form - you said I don't as she is a USC. By adding her doesnt mean i am saying she needs a visa. If its common sense how come you say NOT to list her then?

I guess I can not find a way to make this clear.

You said " I filled in my daughters information but wasnt sure what to put in the next two parts". I answered your questions about those " parts".

The answers to those "two parts" are common sense.

I can see my answer isnt clear to you. The question is simple if you let it be. If you have children list them. Then just use common sense as to the other " two parts" . You answered your own question in the post & then question your own understanding of the same answer.

I am stunned that you think you need to list her as following you if shes not going to. That is what your post is about.

Good luck with the rest of the journey.

Um... first you said don't list her, then you said don't list her as following you. It really wasn't clear the first time around.

To the OP: The form is pretty clear: List all children under the age of 21. She won't be accompanying you, and she won't be following you, so tick "No" for both. If you're concerned about it, you could write "See explanation on attached sheet" on the next line and attach a sheet explaining that your child is a US citizen and already living in the US—but this probably isn't necessary. It will already be clear from question 37 on the DS-156, "Are any of the following persons in the U.S., or do they have U.S. legal permanent residence or U.S. citizenship?"

To bad everyone can't just say "I was wrong in my original answer", It happens to everyone once in awhile. Instead we have to watch the hole digging and squirming. It's easier for me to say "OOPS" sorry I was wrong.

LOL. ??

Who said anything about listing her as following me? You say you can't seem to make it clear, but its very simple to understand that i DIDNT state that and also that u said NOT to list her. Now that youve changed what you've said to agree with what i have said it seems pretty convenient. When i filled out the forms originally I listed her, AS I SAID BEFORE, and like I stated i listed her as No for both - like u informed me, she's a USC and doesnt need a visa - thanks for that, lol. You did make it clear what u meant, you simple gave bad advice based on no evidence it seems - and i got it right the first time. Like the other guys said and agreed - list her as u already have done.

I guess you cant read either. Try it again. She said she ALREADY LISTED the kid. Then she is asking about listing the kid again in " the second part as she said.

Hey Pizza boy stick with what you understand. Cheese & sauce.

You dont have to watch anything except the oven temp.

I'm not wrong. The answer I gave is correct.

Read what is written again & see if you can figure it out.

I'm sorry to see that all of this has got your knickers in a twist/panties in a bunch NING, but firstly I am a GUY! thats why it says BRITT & DYFED - i signed these posts as Dyfed!

Secondly - what do u mean I LISTED THE KID?? I added my daughters to the form as it requests i do so.

IT WAS YOU.. YES... YOU!! that said not to bother "listing" my daughter. I originally stated that i had put her on the forms and that I'd need to put NO for both answers. The other guys on here corroborated these facts and that i was correct to do so, so the matter is simply over. Why on earth you are trying to convince us that you meant something you clearly didnt say is beyond me. No one that has read your posts agreed with that you said.

Its really immature to think you had a go at Pizzadude when he was being light hearted and was clearly correct when he stated that you were wrong!!

What else do you want to say?? Just remember - we can READ what you have previously said so contradicting yourself is not going to get you anywhere.

You have made me laugh if anything, so thanks for that!

Because they are talking about the beneficiary, not the petitioner. You are the petitioner and therefore you do not list your children, only the beneficiary's children, in that age category.
