DS-260 is a dynamic form. Certain question are auto-deleted depending on answers to questions in earlier pages. The exemplar pdf above explains most of the alternatives.

It's linked in the wiki

Reposting something I posted about the DS-260 when I had looked it up myself.

These are the conditions for people who need to fill out their work history/education.

- Males between ages 14-60

- Anyone over 14 from Burma, China, Cuba, India, Iran, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Syria, stateless

- Anyone who is retired, not employed, or a homemaker

- everyone filing for visas that aren't IR1/CR1

Otherwise, women** who are currently working are exempt. That's what it appears like since that's what Ketsuban has reported and NLR.

I got the info for reading the DS2-260 example from the travel.state.gov website that Saylin links to. However, maybe these conditions could be plainly posted because a lot of people probably do not read the DS260?

Edit: Women from countries not listed.

Hi everyone, yes, the travel.state.gov guide is the one I looked at a while ago when first getting this stuff together. I thought the guide someone mentioned was one a member of this site made or something. I don't know why the males ages 14-60 part completely flew out of my mind. Probably because the visa section of my brain has turned into scrambled eggs at this point (I blame the NVC hold music). Sorry!

Guys,

I Called NVC with question about 864/ AOS, Last year i worked few months only, I was out of the country most of year, income of 22K the house hold member of 3(me,wife n kid). I have included my current check stubs and Employment letter showing my current income which is more than sufficient for AOS determination. The Operator at NVC told me they dont judge your income solely on your last year Tax Return, They base AOS out of your current Income and that i should not worry if my currently income is more than what is listed on my last year's Tax Return. Will they ask for co-sponsor? My current income mean is more than sufficient...

IS AOS DETERMINED BY YOUR LAST YEAR TAX RETURN OR BY YOUR CURRENT INCOME, I HAVE PROVIDED THEM LETTER OF EMPLOYMENT AND 3 MOST RECENT PAY STUBS...

Mostly it is CURRENT income but it depends on the embassy. Some really like to see previous years above.

The Journey is not an easy one. Most times too I feel frustrated and tired of this long immigration process, my husband has been my source of strength and he consoles me most of the time. Our anniversary is next week and we ain't even going to spend it together. Its really frustrating.

Am so sorry for how you feel, Just hang in there, I know its not easy for all of us that are not with our spouses at the moment. I pray to God to give all of us the strength and power to scale thru the immigration process and very soon all this nightmare will soon be over.

Thankyou so much for the kind words. It is indeed the worst journey I have had In my entire life. Everything is just painful in this. U guys understand me more than my family and friends sometimes and I think that only people who go thru this process can understand how very painful it is. I m just trying very very hard to pass these last few months. These are as hard as the last coupe months at ucsis when I was waiting for the approval. History is repeating itself again.

sorry dear. I can feel ur pain I was depressed last week... But trust me I am going crazy each day. I hope we will not get any mental disorders or stress related issues. I am scared about that too. There is no one in this world to ask to change this process. Why can't we have on the spot interviews , we submit everything at the interview and get the visa????? Why do we all need to suffer everyday.

Can you fix it in your timeline please? I'm not super familiar with your consulate but you should be okay.

I think may be nvc is working from June 26 th to July 3rd. So people who have their last scanned dates between this time might get good news next week. I saw a comment who stated that it takes approximately 2 days to review a document.

i'm july 1st.. i hope it's true they are working on the case between 6.26 - 7.3.... i saw someone who got CC and scan date is 7/1

I just called NVC to confirm the case complete, last scan was Jun 27 (DHL delivery of my documents were on Jun 23).

My file has been at NVC for almost 5months and without doubt that's really long time, my process has been delayed by Singapore police report and some flaw in previous document filing.

Thank you for all the help and information in this forum.

Hey guy. I Submited 1040X to change my amritual status from Single to Married Filing Separately, But got letter from them stating that need to provide valid SSN or ITIN for my spouse. So I guess NRA does not work as SSN. Or is there any other way to change the status?

[EOC 440]

Anyone know how I know if I need a joint sponsor? My husband and I wont have a job, bit anyone know how much money you need to have saved to be okay without one??

I think the closer each step is coming to an end, the more it becomes frustrating.
