DS-156 form question

Hi
Below are few questions:

1. I was wondering what should I put for Line 18 (Spouse's Full Name, including maiden name)? Please refer to example below:

e.g. "Indu" is first name before & after marriage
& "AfterMarria" is the last name after marriage
& "BeforeMarria" is the last name before marriage.


So Line 18 would look like " Indu AfterMarria, BeforeMarria "?

2. Line 27: Purspose of Visit:
Should it be: Tourism & Family visit
Or
Should it be: Tourism & Visit son & daughter-in-law

3. Line 8: Other Surnames used (Maiden, Religious, Professional, Aliases):
Should it be: "BeforeMarria" ?

4. Line 9: Other First and Middle names used:
"Indu" worked for a company whose paystubs used the FirstName's first Initial and FirstInitial of the MiddleName e.g. for "Indu Kumar AfterMarria" the company used the name as "I. K. AfterMarria", so the question is, for line 9 should be: " I. K. " ?

5. If any line is not applicable then should we write:
" N/A "
or
should it be " None "

6. If the previous visa stamp was " B1/B2 ", this was almost 10-15 years back, how to find out which category of visa was initially applied for i.e. B1 or was it B2?
Does the new visa stamp these days show just one of the two or just one if the intent is Tourism?


I'm new to this visa application process, please help.
 
Thanks pappupager, some queries still remain..

Hi pappupager.

Thanks for the link. I looked at the description for each field that I'm interested in and I also looked at the sample (filled) DS-156, but the fields that I'm interested in are marked as "None".

I will appreciate your help with question# 1, 3, 4 & 6 that I posted earlier above.

Question1: For Line 18
Question3: For line 8
Question4: For line 9
Question6: For line 30.

Thanks.
