DS 230 Part II

Hi,

Mine is EB2-NIW case filed by my employer. Approved for consular processing.

I have a few questions.
1. Section 29 on DS 230 Part II. Should I fill-in the name and address of my employer in this section?

2. When is I864 required? I was told by NVC that I-864 is not valid in my case.

3. My husband was arrested once for public intoxication. But he pleaded guilty and was let go in the court. The judge said that he had a parole time of 1 year if there were no further incidences of PI, then it would be erased from the records. How do I verify this? It's been 2.5 years since that incident and he has not had any other incidence.

Thanks in advance.

My attorney filled my name, address and my wife's name and address in this field in our respective forms

2. When is I864 required? I was told by NVC that I-864 is not valid in my case.

I864 is for family based immigrants.

Rajeev,
About Q' 29 of DS 230 II...

I think it should be the petitioners name and address. right?? i.e for employement based applicant's, it should be the company name and company address. Is n't it?? In form I - 140 also there is an item with Petitioner name etc., where I have my compnay's name and address.

Please clarify.

Regds,
Sam.
 
Labor and I140 are petitions with the INS..

and as such, the employer is your petitioner. That is the reason why the INS communicates with the employer and not the employee. But the CP is between the employee and the Dept of state. Hence your name might need to be mentioned there. I am just going by how my attorney filled the DS 230 II. Other cPers jump in!;)
 
DS 230 Part II

Thank you Rajeev and Sam.

I too was thinking that DS 230 Part !! section 29 would be mine and my spouse's name. I hope other Cper's can chip in..
 
Hi friends,

Regarding section 29 my lawyer suggested me with Employers name & address. I remember even in 'May CPers thread' someone mentioned about employers address in section 29.

Thanks,
 
Is it same for wife & myself?

Do we need to put employers name & address for both my self & wife?

or
for my wife, instead if employer name, do I need to put my name & address?

Thanks,

For both of you, you have to give your employer's name and address.
For accurate purposes, for your wife, you may include that "Spouse's Employer" in the brackets.

I am writing like this:

For me:

Company Name. ( My Employer & I - 140 Petitioner)
Company Address.

For my Wife:

Company Name. ( Spouse's Employer & I - 140 Petitioner)
Company Address.

My lawer reviewed the the copy and she said it is o.k.

Regds,
Sam.
 
My 2 cents ..

My case is EB3. The attorney for our co. has filled my employers name and addr. My colleague from co. had a CP in may 2003 at Chennai and his case is EB2. His was also co. name and addr. For spouse the husband is the petitioner since she is not employed. He had a successful CP. Any thoughts fellow CPersr :confused:

The petitioner

There is lot of debate in the forum about this.

We have reached a situation where members can claim that they
have gone through the process successfully even though they
filled this item in different ways.

So, if I write the way I filled and also say that I have been successful, that need not be taken as a final word!

But logically speaking in Employment Categories the Employer is the petitioner for the applicant. The spouse and children enjoy this as derivates.

So the name and address of the Employer needs to be filled in this item and this is how I did it:

For me (main applicant):

xyz corp. ( I-140 petitioner )
xxxxxxx
Reston, VA

For my wife :

xyz corp. (I-140 petitioner for spouse)
xxxxxxxx
Reston, VA

For my daughter:

xyz corp. (I-140 petitioner for father)
xxxxxxxxx
Reston, VA

I did not face one sigle question on how the documents were filled.

Thanks.

My understanding

The question is asking name and address of petitioner. The reason why india73's case raised questions is, I think, due to his EB2-NIW. We know that one can self-petition for NIW. If so you should put yourself's name and address. But for india73's case, he still has to put his employer's name and address because he didn't self-petition, rather, his company petitioned on behalf him.

This is my understanding regarding this question. I am a self-petitioner and just sent out fee bills yesterday and am waiting for packet 3 to come.
