DS-5540 Questions

[Dome 24]

I have a few questions for the DS 5540.

 

For question 4A asking about insurance in 30 days: is travel insurance allowed? We were thinking about getting travel insurance until we get married and I can have my fiance added to my health insurance through work.

For part 3, my fiance and I will be living with my parents for a few months until we rent our own place. Would my parents be listed under household size?

 

Do I answer question 12 yes, no, or leave blank? My fiance has never lived in the US, so she has clearly not received any public benefit. The way this is worded is confusing though so I'm not sure how to answer.

 

Lastly, is there any supporting evidence needed, or do we just need to print and sign this form and that's it? What I've seen seems to indicate no supporting evidence is required. If I should have supporting evidence, what would I need?

 

I realize since this form is so new this information may not all be out there, but any advice is greatly appreciated.

The DS-5540 is not used for the K-1. No need to fill it out. You will fill out another form the I-944 which is similar but not till you submit your AOS after marriage.

The information has been updated and many embassies are asking for the DS-5540 and the beneficiary is to complete. We recommend that the two of you work on it together.
