DS 156 form help!!

[lawren14 3]

Hi vj friends.

I am now finishing my DS forms online and I am done with the DS 156. Unfortunately I wasn't aware that this site has an example answered form available and so I wasn't able to check that before I did my DS 156. Now i think I made a few mistakes on filling up my form... And those are....

1. First, I didn't used capital letters on all my answers, I used CAPS only on my surname and the word PHILIPPINES.

2. I didn't put anything on the National Identification number. On the example form in VJ, the answer is NONE.

3. On the question, "how long do you intend to stay in the US?" I answered, " For good" instead of PERMANENTLY just like on the example form.

4. On the question, " what is the purpose of your trip?" I answered, " To marry my fiance and be with him" instead of MARRIAGE AND RELOCATION just like on the ex form.

5. And lastly, and the worst that bothers me is the question, "Do you intend to work in the US?" I just checked the box "NO" coz it states on the lower portion that I should provide the employer if my answer is yes. I saw in the example form that the answer should be like WITH WORK AUTHORIZATION, EMPLOYER UNKNOWN. I honestly want to work in the US of course, but I have no specific plans yet because I'm still here so I just answered NO. OMG, would they think I am lying about it?

If my answers on my form are not acceptable, can I accomplish a new DS 156 online? I am worried that it isn't possible because of the bar code thing... I am afraid it will result on having 2 DS 156 forms on their file which will cause me problems.. Help pls!

PS. Sorry I think Im being O.C or something.. I am really worried

With questions 1, 3,3 and 5; you should be fine... but with #2: Do you have a National ID number? I do and I completed mine with it. I don't know why the example calls for NONE on that box.

Either way, there's a very easy fix for this, if you want re do the form.... do just that. Start over, discard the previous one and presto!

PS: Don't worry about how many DS156 you are generating. The bar code that contains all the information is for them to scan... it's not like it's sent electronically and generates multiple forms for you.

I don't even know whats National Identification Number, what is it by the way? lol.

I'm relieved to know that I can redo the DS 156 without a hassle.. I think I'm being O.C. because of this K1 process.. I've been checking the forms for like 10x without being satisfied. huhu . But anyways, thank you so much!

To us, our National ID number is the most important piece of ID we have. It's the same number we use for our Driver's License and Passport; but in In Argentina you can't use your Driver's License as a form of ID other than to prove that you can drive.. you need to show your National ID if you need to do something that requires proof of identity.

I was already OC before we started the whole visa journey...

Oh now i get it... I think we don't have that kind of ID here in the Philippines.

About the OC thing, glad to know Im not alone!

Again, THANK YOU
