So i am confused, while working on my husbands DS260 their is a question on the previous travel information part:

"have you ever been in the US'?

I answered yes because he lives here since age 4 and never left the country, did i answer it correctly? I said hes been here 25 years.

I have not finished the whole application quite yet, if i answered it incorrectly then i can go back and change it.

 

 

Please help. thank you in advance.

If he lives here why does he need a visa? 

 

OK, looked at your post history and he EWI as a 4-year-old child and has been here ever since. You answered it correctly.

You are overthinking.  It's a question, a direct question, to which there is a truthful and accurate answer.  Any other answer besides the truth would be a lie.  NEVER lie on a immigration form or to an immigration official.  Or, just stop at "never lie".

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...

I’m confused... Where in the question does it sound like I’m lying?

You are not.  Any other answer but YES, would be lying.  To consider any other answer than YES, would be to consider lying.  So, what was your question again?

Ok, that’s a relief.  I’m good now, ds260 submitted and now going to submit I864ez this week.
