    Hi everybody here Another little question concerning place of birth of parents for the DS-260. Algeria was a french department before 1962. So french people born there before this date had on their ID: "born in France". In the ds-260, they ask for place of birth of the parents, town and...

    So is it possible to reapply for DV-2016 even if we are selected for DV-2015 (but with a big CS)? The US Global Green Card site I used to the former inscription told me it wasn't necessary because we had all chances to pass it this year. But they are pulling my leg I suppose...

    I'm happy that everything's clear between us now! No offense, then. Once again, (and I understand it might have upset you) the misunderstood was between the differences of appreciations between 1) what does Law recommends 2) what truth has not to be tell because Law doesn't ask for 3) what...

    This is a great novel, Britsimon, and I thank you to have spare time to find it. I think your interpretation is right and it makes sense. The dv260 submission must be the point where you got high school diploma, even you hadn't yet on the eDV entry. For instance my spouse passed recently an...

    Impossible. When you say on the ds-260 that a visa had been delivered to you in the past, you need to put the exact date. But for me it was in 1976 and I no longer have my ancient passport. Anyway, it was a visa for 3 months that I never used because the journey of study has been cancelled. And...

    I read carefully again the the official text you provided me SM1smom (and I thank you for that) and I agree with you: if a child, according to the US administration is an unmarried child under 21 OR an adopted child, then the children above 2 or given up to adoption are no more ones' children...

    PS: For instance, I don't understand at all what you mean by "a Betty Do-Gooder", or, precedently, "to take the baton" or something like that. There are certainly current expressions in english but impossible to translate, I think. This maybe cause misunderstandings between us. Sorry about that...

    Hum, sorry Sm1smom, I don't know if this a problem of language or of way of thinking, but it seems to me that you misunderstand my topics and I am pretty sad about it. :oops: I NEVER thought you were me asking to lie! Britsimon talked about omission. And yes, not to say you have a child which...

    A lie by omission is a lie, you're right. But if I follow your precedent point of view, and the one of sm1smom, we'd better to answer "no" about the child, bout if we say "yes but" during the interview, it can be a problem, I think. So I wait for other points of views and see what is better. Ask...

    Thanks Britsimon, I think you're right, but in this case I have not only to translate the french certificate of diploma but to find an us equivalent, right? That is "High School" for "Baccalaureat", "Master 1 in Law" for "Licence en Droit"; "Master 2 in Cinema" for "Diplome d'Etudes Approfondies...

    Hi again What is exactly the level of "vocational school" and white kind of job is related? Is it lower or higher than "High School" level? Because in France, professional formations (equivalent to vocational school I suppose) are lower than High School. So if I've put "vocational school" on the...

    Another question…. :confused: Sorry, I'm abusing, I know… They ask on the ds-260 if we had obtained former visas for the USA. In fact I had one during my studies in 1977 :eek: for 3 months but the journey had been cancelled so I didn't use this visa. Is it so obsolete that it is not necessary to...

    I tell you that when we'll be finally in the States we'll invite you to have a drink at home, guys! Cause your help on this forum is precious… :rolleyes: So, another question about this DS-260 according to the educational level and degrees. Have we to list the diplomas in the native language...

    Thank you for your advices. Apparently there is some difference of opinion between usamommy2015 on one side and sm1smom and Britsimon on the other. I understand both points of views but need to know what is the US administration position! So, let's resume the situation. My spouse had a child...

    another thing On the first demand, they ask "number if unmarried children under 21". I answered no, because I have a daughter which is 26 years old and don't emigrate. So on the ds-260, have I to mention her ? I suppose so….

    Hum, again with the 1. Wait a minute For the initial entry, I was the principal submitter, but my soups has been selected. For the "children" informations, we didn't give any information at all… So we didn't say if my spouse had or hadn't children. The fact is she had one, but the child (under...

    Thanks for your answer usamommy2015! For the question 2, I think artist/performer is more appropriate to the job of creative worker.
