DS-230, Q20, Street Address, or Just City

[jojoe 0]

Hello there everyone!

Quick question: On the DS-230 (part 1) form, Q20 asks about the addresses you (the beneficiary) have lived at for more trhan 6 months since age 16.

It asks only the city, province, and the country.

(In the example DS-230 on VJ, we have it filled as: 'Rome, Rome, Italy')

Is that all we need to write, or do we need to write the exact street address?

A corollary to the same question is what if you have lived on multiple addresses IN the SAME city/province/country?

Reason for the question is that my wife was finishing her studies in India, (and subsequently working) and was in various hostels over the last 8 years in Delhi.

Is it Okay to write Delhi, Delhi, India ONCE for the last 8 years, OR specify Delhi, Delhi, India for each hostel stay (ie 2000-2001, 2001-2003,etc).

OR do we need to list her entire physical address for each of those locations?

(I know we have submitted the exact addresses on the G-325A at the time of submission of her I-130, which the USCIS & the NVC have, but from the DS-230 form, it appears they are only asking for city/province/country, NOT the exact street address here)

Thanks a million,

Joe

City, Province, Country is all.

If you moved around in the same city, just list it once.

Example: Lived at 123 First St from Jan 05 to July 05 them moved to 234 Second St and lived there July 05 to Dec 06, but was in same city, just put lived in City from Jan 05 to Dec 05 on 1 line.

So if has lived in same city for 8 years but at different places, just list living in that city 1 time.
