packet 3 to Montreal

[jken 2]

Hi all -

Good Luck to all who have interviews coming up; i envy you!

My question i guess is 2 fold - perhaps minor, but i am in a bit of a panic mode here!

#1. I used blue ink to fill out all the forms...156-156k etc., i dont remember reading it had to be done in black ink like the i-129f...issue?

#2. for the schooling section - i left it blank...i know...shouldd have known better...but ...i thought they only meant for secondary which i dont have any so...

my question is: what will happen...will montreal return it to me or is this something that can be rectified at the interview...or perhaps i should send them another biographic information...helpppppppppppppppppppppp

thanks all - everyones input is always much appreciated....have a good day all.

I'm not sure if the blue ink matters or not. Highly unlikely they would return it because of that. As for the schooling, they do ask you if the forms are correct when you are there. At that point you could mention the schooling and if you need to fill it in or not.

Wait, maybe I am missing something, but I don't see where it says to use black ink on the I-129F. I used blue ink on all my forms. Is this gonna be a problem for me?

It asks for black on packet 3... but ya I doubt they'll send it back! Who knows. To me it makes more sense to use blue because it's less obviously a photocopy.

QUESTION: I have filled it out and am confused what to do about one question on DS-230 #35... list all previous visits or residence to the US, give type of visa status. So I've been to the US like over 50 times in my life. Couldn't tell you all the dates. What do I do? On my DS-160 I listed my last 5 visits.

Tater&#######:

I've just finished filling out the DS-230. On the form I put the last few dates I visited the U.S. Then in an attached "Supplement to DS-230 - Visits to the U.S." I explained that there were several other cross border day trips for shopping, for which I had not kept any records. I also stated that to the best of my knowledge those were the only other visits other than those listed directly on the form.

I believe others here on VJ have done the same thing, since the form does not allow enough space for some people to include ALL of their visits. Perhaps others can tell you their experiences with that, since I haven't actually sent in my form yet and I'd be interested to know as well.
