Question about the DS260 guys, please help..

Example, lets say my name is:

surname/married - SMITH

Middle/maiden - CRUZ

given name - APRIL MAY

When i started ds260, the surname and given name fields were already automatically filled out.

Surnames SMITH

Given names APRIL MAY

then under that there's "Full name in native alphabet"

What should i use? APRIL MAY SMITH or APRIL MAY CRUZ SMITH ??

Im just confused..hope u can help me, thanks! :)

​Thanks for the reply.

​

​Are you suggesting then that I fill out the DS-260 as:

​

​Given names: <first name>

​Surname: <maiden name> <married surname>

​

​?

If your approval came from TSC it will take longer than other service centers. They have historically just taken longer to send it. Look in the NVC forum for evidence of this.
