Are you sure that I should put (574) 999-9999 on the DS-230 form? Is that how you guys did it? Because I saw an example of the DS-230 form and it looked like this >> +999-9999 so I guess thats why i'm confused.

Well Ecuadorian numbers are different, but we put ours like this: (593)99-99-9999, but we also had the option to put it like this: +099-999-9999. Depends on how you want to put it. Either way would be fine, I'm sure.

Colombian code is (57) and 4 is just for telephones in Antioquia. If your husband's number is a cellphone, it should be the country code + the cell number (57) 3xx xxxxxxx and (574) xxx xxxx if it's a telephone number.

Is it ok to fill it out through PDF? If so can we leave some questions blank because PDF didn't let me type the rest of whatever I needed to type and then print it out and fill the blank spaces with pen?

Also what are the questions that we can leave blank?

What are the questions that we can put "NONE"?

What are the questions that we can put "N/A"?

Thanks everybody!!

Yes you can fill in with pen. Put none where there is none unless it's a name. Then use a line or dashes. Put n/a where the question does not apply. Ie: name all children. You have none so the rest of the questions are n/a.

Can I put for example "SAME AS ITEM #10" as much as I need to on the DS-230 form? Because on #10 it says "Permanent address in the United States where you intend to live, if known (street address including zip code). Include the name of a person who lives there." and for #11 I would put "SAME AS ITEM #10" but on the second part of the DS-230 #39 it says "Name and address of petitioner" and it will be the same person and address that I put on #10, so can I put "SAME AS ITEM #10" for #39???

Not only for those questions but as for the addresses of my hubby's parents are the same so can I put for #27 "SAME AS ITEM #22"?

Thanks!

On #32 where you have to list your employer, can I put the company name? or does it have to be the person who hired you?

Thanks!

The company name is fine.

For little questions like this, you can just go to the monthly NVC thread instead of making a new thread each time. You'll probably get quicker answers, too. wink.png

***** several topics merged. PLease do not start more than one topic on the same/ similar issues. For example, put all questions about the DS-230 in one thread. If you have follow-on questions or an update, post these as a reply to the original thread, NOT a new thread *****
