Embassy form-filling questions

[thatbritishlass 2]

Hey everyone

I've been told my Packet 3 is on its way so I'm getting prepared by doing as many of the forms as possible in advance.

I've just got a couple of questions that I hope some of you who have been through this already will be able to answer - mostly about employment and visit history. Here goes...

1. On my DS-157 it asks for my last 2 employers. My last 2 jobs (prior to my current job) were both with the same company (Disney) but in different lines of business and at 2 separate periods. Should I just list Disney twice?

2. In the same vein on the DS-157, for my earlier stint with Disney I can remember my supervisor's first name but not her last name (first-name company and they specifically won't give references, so I'm not sure I ever knew it). What should I put down?

3. For the DS-156 and the DS-230 they want your history of visits to the US. Should I include ALL vacations or just times when I entered on a visa? I can remember as far back as 1994 but not before that but I know I visited cos my granddad lived there...

Any help gratefully received

I put all my vacations, going right back to my first visit in 1996, just to be on the safe side. There was no way I could remember which months I was there all those years ago, so I just guessed. I couldn't check my old passport for the date stamps as that one was lost/stolen by the DVLA when I sent it in as ID for driving license address change 2 years ago (that's another story!).

3. For the DS-156 and the DS-230 they want your history of visits to the US. Should I include ALL vacations or just times when I entered on a visa? I can remember as far back as 1994 but not before that but I know I visited cos my granddad lived there... Just put what you can remember. If you've got stamps in a current or former passport, those can be helpful in noting dates.
