who signs a minors ds-230

[Credzba 0]

I am preparing the forms needed for the nvc to get i-130 for my wife and daughter.

since I filed i-130 for each of them I anticipate I will have to fill out the ds-230 for each of them (or do they get combined at some point?).

If I fill out a ds-230 for my daughter, does she sign it even though she is only 15 years old?

hi,

I think you should call the NVC specifically for this question.... If i am not wrong you will have to fill in one form only.. i think they have the option if any kids are accompanying with the adults..... there u haev to fill in the details........ you can download DS-230 form and check the form, where you have to fill in the details who are coming

The USC parent signs a minor's DS-230. It clearly spells it somewhere in the instructions.

How did you do the signing please? Did you sign? Or did the 15 year sign? I have 2 seperate petetions for my step kids and this is a good question.

Thanks

Your natural parent signs the child's forms in their behalf if the child is too young to sign their name. Otherwise, the child signs. My step-daughter was 17 when she received the visa. Nobody signed any papers in her behalf. Yes, the child will need all the same forms the parent needs all the way through the CR1 process. With the exception of the petition package itself, the same is true for K visas. K2 and K4 have no individual petition or G325a initially.

Cool thanks So I will have the Dad sign the 11 year old and the 15 year old sign his own. I will call once they generate it to be extra sure and let everyone what NVC says, however sometimes you get a person who is a little clueless

We have the same situation. NVC told my husband (US Citizen), that the US Citizen parent is the one who will fill up and sign the DS-230 in behalf of the minor child (our son is 2 years old). What my hubby did, is, filled up and signed the DS-230 with his own signature and write the word "(by father)" beside his signature.
