Ds230 help needed (merged)

[Rass 1]

I need a little help with my form ds230 .

This might seem a stupid question but all this immigration process has made me a little paranoid and I don't want any errors

Let's say I studied in some school and then two year gap in studies and then continued again.

So a two year gap appears to be there in my educational history and the institutes i attended

So am I suppose to mention that I had a gap just so they don't raise a question what I was doing for those two years?

Waiting for a reply.

Thanks in advance!

K-3 visa chasers only fill out part I of the DS-230, and hand over to the IV Unit, so plan accordingly.

dont try to make ur form look perfect by hiding , not mentioning or lieing about anything. if u think a question can b raised then prepare the answer for that question but dont hide anything because ur form is a written proof and if anything seems unbalanced to them then u might have to face a long long AP or even a denial. if u have a gap in education then tell them wat u been doing in those two years.

I wasn't attending any institute for those two years so I have decided that I'll just mention this in the attachment. Will let them know for sure because I really wasnt doing anything back then.

Thanks raaj.

To be honest, I don't think they'll really care. They just want you to be honest and say you were attending school or working or unemployed etc...

Works for me!

Thanks

I have a question.

In the form ds230 where father's date of birth is required:

I haven't been in contact with my father from a very long time,as my parents were separated long time ago.

Plus he lives out of the country and we are not in touch at all.. I don't have any document of his with his date of birth mentioned .

What to do? Can I leave that space and mention why i dont know his date of birth else where in the attachment ?

Thanks

duplicate whatever the birth certificate states

I leave it all blank since there is no father listed for my wife

You can leave it blank if the date is unknown.

I have a question about the ds-230 form. (this form is so confusing in some ascpects)

• I am filing CR-1 and question #9 asks for his marital status (I should put in married, right ?)
• Spouse's name (which is me- should I give out all my info...right) (Question 14)
• Then going down (this is where it gets confusing). 31a. Persons names in 14 and 29 who will accompany you to the United States now and 31b says Peron(s) named in 14 and 9 who will follow you to the United States at a later date.

What is confusing here is the fact that am here, ....please help ?? I need to send this documents tomorrow morning so that they can start on the process asap. Thanks everyone.
