hi, it's me again. now i am trying to fill out DS 230 part 2. FYI, English isn't my first language, so i'm worried that i misunderstand these 45 questions. i am reading each word and trying my best to comprehend, still i'm not confident with my own comprehension:( i mostly answered NO, how about you people? i was thinking "why did i answer NO to every question, is it really? should i answer NO to each Question?" i'm worried more since it's all abt Law in the US..can any1 of u guide me? which question i should answer yes, which one i should answer NO (i thought these questions apply to every beneficiary as individual wherever they come from) :unsure:

oh ya for #43.a question : have you ever applied for Social Security NUmber (SSN)

i answered NO

the next utterance is: do you want the social security administration to assign you a SSN and issue a card? ( you must answer YES to question 43b. to receive a number and a card)

so i answer YES...........is it correct?? :unsure::blush: and i chose YES to answer 43.b??? :unsure: i think im going nuts since i read each question non-stop, since i woke up this morning :blink:

any help is much appreciated :)

43 A is NO on the first and YES on the 2nd portion of that question...that is, if you want the SS Administration to issue you a number. 43B is YES also but everything else would hopefully be NO

If you answer YES to any of those "NO" questions then what you are saying is that you fall under one the categories to be denied a VISA ... Sooo does that answer your question? Hopefully you DON'T have a YES in there. That is with the exception of the SSN questions.

oh, and two more questions please, # 45: I claim to be: i chose --> a family-sponsored immigrant ( i know i'm not allowed to write yet, again i just wanted to make sure

# 39 it asks abt the petitioner's name and the address. is it me (the beneficiary or my husband (petitioner)

since i am the one who fiiled out this DS 230, i think it's ME n my address? am I right?

thanks again :)

On 43a, the first Yes, Yes and No on the far left should be blank. In the middle portion of 43a, check the first No, check the 2nd Yes, and leave the 3rd No-blank.

On 43b I only see one Yes and one No. You mark Yes.

What you chose for 45 is correct.

On 39 - list your husbands full name, full address, email and phone number.

And no, although it appears as though you would list your address and name, they are only requesting the petitioners name in this portion.

But on 44 you will say that you are the person who completed the form.
