Question: I saw a member in another thread mention that we should add the case # and invoice ID and names and DOBs to the top of each document before uploading into ceac (or emailing) to prevent the files becoming lost but is this necessary if this is electronic anyway?

No. That was for documents that used to be mailed in. So many things have changed recently with NVC. You have to be careful looking at threads that are not current. Only upload transcripts, no 1040 tax returns.

It was a current thread but it was stated by @Adil & Jeanne who went through the process many years ago, I'm assuming before everything became electronic.

My husband only remembers the year and maybe the month he went to certain vocational schools. He doesn't remember exact dates as it was 7-9 years ago. Can he explain this at his interview ? I see the last page of the DS-260 it warns about providing false info and it's not purposely but what can we do if he doesn't remember? You have to put in a date month and year. I just don't know what to do. I dont want something like this disqualifying him from getting a visa.

I thought it only asked for the month and year. It doesn’t? No one knows the exact date. I always put the first weekday in that month for my date.

No unfortunately it asks specifically for the month,day and year under the sections about employment and education history. 

 

And thank you that's a good suggestion.

Did anyone who's already completed the DS-260 electronically sign the last page for their spouse? I told my husband he should log in from Morocco and do it because I don't know if they can tell by IP address or whatever where it was signed and then he gets in trouble for having me do it for him. Sorry for the constant questions, this is so annoying!

Sorry no response from anyone. So I will answer. You can complete it for him. I will complete it for my husband as well. I read it on their website that we can.
