Bit of a stupid one, but I want to be 100% sure I've got the answer right here.

My son is a dual-citizen, he holds an American & a British passport. On the forms I need to complete it asks who will immigrate with me. Well he is moving with me to the US, obviously, but would he be technically immigrating because he already is a US citizen? So do I leave him out of the forms? It's only me who is applying for a visa so he doesn't count, right?

I think you indeed answered your own question, he isn't applying for a visa as he already is a citizen. You might need to add him to any forms where they ask how many kids you have and who those kids are but he is technically not immigrating with you on a visa, just like you said.

Correct, he is not immigrating... no mention of him on form required

YMMV

Okay, on the DS-230 Part I question 31(a) it reads:

31a. Person(s) named in 14 and 29 who will accompany you to the United States now.

My son was listed in Question 29 as it said to list ALL children. He will be coming with me to the states, but he's not immigrating as I stated above. Am I right in putting his name in 31a?
