Hi Gurus,

I will be getting my Packet 3 in a week or so and I want to be ready with a dummy set of forms all filled up. I tried looking on web and all the ds-230 form I find say expires on May 2004. Can anyone guide me as to where I can find new forms or is there a lot of differences between new and old form. Any help appreciated.

Thanks

These have apparently been extended. You can prep up with these and if the P3 gives any updated ones, you could use those. Even if there are new forms, most probably they'll ask for a few things more.

Q22 and 23 on DS-230

Folks I have a few questions regarding the following:

Q22 - List below all employment for last 10 yrs.

Do i have to mention my employment histroy in India? My Resume that was used for I140 does not mention Indian job experience.

Q23 - List below all educational institutions attended

Do I or should I mention educational institutions all the way from Standard 1 to 12 (high school) in India or just Standard 12 (Class 12) high school leaving diploma and offcourse college/university education?

Also, can anyone shed more light regarding the DS-230 form that is received in Packet3? Is this form the same as the current DS 230 form available on the websites? My lawyer has asked me to send him all the information regarding DS 230 so that he can prepare the same in advance.. I am just wondering that if the one received in packet 3 is not the same as the one available now .. then I might run into problems later on??

Please advise.
Thanks.

Thanks Rjain.

One quick followup - did you or your lawyer handwrite when filling out the DS 230 form which came in the Packet3?? Or did they use an online copy that might have been prepared in advance of receipt of P3?

Thanks.

Hi Sanjay,

I downloaded a pdf version and then used Adobe Acrobat Writer to prepare the forms. This helped in the legibility and the frequent changes that my lawyer suggested.
